Help raise $1 million - giving patients the hope and help they need. Joey, a 34-year-old wife and mother can relate better than most to the financial blow of a life-threatening disease. Even though Joey had health insurance when she was treated for leukemia in 2004, she is still paying off $40,000 in uninsured medical bills from her life-saving marrow transplant. “I didn’t think about the medical bills while in the hospital and my husband didn’t either, but there was a lot to think about when I got home.” “I wish I had known about your patient assistance grants back then. Families can use the help. Every little bit counts.”
Like 70 percent of patients in need of a marrow transplant, Joey had no donor match in her family. She had to rely on the kindness of strangers. She found her donor, Tom Wilhelm, on Be The Match RegistrySM. • Join Be The Match Registry Today!
