    Does anyone know how long your sample stays on the A.N database ?

    I gave my sample years ago and presumed it stays forever.

    Everyone should be a donor, not just bone marrow but organs as well. Thousands of people die every year waiting for donations.
    A Family donated the organs ot their 14 year old son which saved the lives of at least 5 people, including me.

    Your "tissue type" stays on forever.

    If you are a match for the person, you will be contacted and asked to come along and give a donation from your bone marrow
    This is why everyone should do it....You are only ever asked if you are a tissue match, and it is as rare as hens teeth...this is why everyone should do it.....

    Family members are usually the most perfect match....but every now and then a "perfect stranger" turns out to be a "perfect match"...and then ....
