Bone Marrow Donor - can you help?

This is from a man who works w/ my husband.  Can you help?  

All

Ishita is our beautiful, smart, loving and wonderful daughter who has become gravely ill with disorder called Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis or HLH. 

She needs donated bone marrow that very closely matches her own for a transplant. So far, we have not been able to find a match for our daughter. Ethnicity is crucial when matching donors. There is a critical shortage of Indian donors in the registry. So we need your help. Ishita needs your help. 

We need as many people as possible to quickly join the National Bone Marrow Registry. Every donor will give Ishita and other people in our dire situation another breath of hope.

Think of it: You could hold the key to curing Ishita's disease, or the disease of another sick child or adult, inside you right now. Please join the registry. Please spread the word. We appreciate your help in creating a tsunami of marrow registrations.
