After fighting for his country for 27 years, army veteran Col. Yudhvir is now fighting for his own life. The 62-year-old resident of Delhi was diagnosed with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia earlier this year. After having dedicated decades of his life in service, he now hopes the people of this nation can come to his rescue.
Register nowHe was diagnosed with blood cancer in March 2022, and soon after, his health started to deteriorate severely. His treating physician has informed him that the only treatment for this condition is a Stem Cell Transplant and should be done as soon as possible for better results. But to receive this treatment, he’s in need of a matching unrelated blood stem cell donor.
His family comprises of his parents and his son, unfortunately, he wasn’t able to find a suitable donor in his family, so he must rely on stem cell registries to find him an unrelated donor so he can get the stem cell transplant that his life depends on.
Today, Col. Yudhvir needs YOUR help! If you’re a healthy individual, between the age of 18-50, please consider joining the fight against cancer by registering to be a potential stem cell donor.
DKMS-BMST has been working to find the right donor for patients suffering from blood cancer and blood disorders in India. So far, we have facilitated 50+ blood stem cell donations. For a stem cell donation, the tissue characteristics of the donor must match those of the patient. When you join the stem cell registry you are on standby to be matched and potentially save the life of anyone with a blood cancer or blood disorder who needs a blood stem cell donation. You can be the right person and with your stem cell donation a real lifesaver.
