What Happens Now?
There have been a lot of questions about what’s going on with Amit now that our deadline has passed. (Nov 30th — chosen based on Amit’s doctor’s optimal treatment schedule and the amount of time it takes the NMDP to process and make a swab available to search.)
In short, we wait.
In the meantime, Amit will receive chemotherapy while his doctors work to identify and confirm a potential donor. We hope he’s able to have a transplant early next year.
Although samples collected from here on out will probably not be a part of his search, Amit and everyone else who has been working so hard on this project encourage you to continue to spread the word about the cause.
Please, tell your friends and family about the need for marrow donation. There are hundreds of patients waiting for a transplant.
Every person you add to the registry could be the match that saves a life.
