Bone marrow donation register

I'm thinking of going on the bone marrow donation register, is anyone on here on the register themselves? Black MY2013 SD4 GS Auto, Wood Company Armrest, Freel2 sticker.

Tried recently as my daughters friend needs bone marrow, there is a narrow window of 16-30 year olds and then only the fittest ones, any minor medical issues and you get rejected.

Go for it, though be prepared, it's a big step but good on ya fella Thumbs Up

Worth a try, the website says 49 but I was rejected as I have psoriatic arthritis and my eldest lad was rejected through age, he's only 31. Not sure what's going on. Fortunately, my daughters friend has found a donor match and the operation will go ahead next month.

I will ask when i next donate platelets. I can sign up at the same time. I too have seen the age thing on the website so dont know if at 36 im too old or not. Black MY2013 SD4 GS Auto, Wood Company Armrest, Freel2 sticker.

How long have you been on the register? Have you donated any at all? The Anthony Nolan people wont accept me as i'm too old (i'm 36) but I believe that as i'm a blood donor I can register with the blood donors to do it. I need to find out next time I donate platelets. Black MY2013 SD4 GS Auto, Wood Company Armrest, Freel2 sticker.
