Ah Mow is among thousands of patients with life-threatening blood diseases and cancers nationwide who are searching for that miracle donor match. He has been diagnosed with severe aplastic anemia.
Show your support for Ah Mow and his ‘ohana by adding your name to the Hawai‘i donor registry. Potential donors must be between the ages of 18 to 44, meet health guidelines, and be willing to donate to anyone in need of a bone marrow or blood stem-cell transplant.
