Sad
I can't imagine what all those people and their families go through.

Good luck Kim/Jeremy.

My brother in law was a successful match and was invited to meet the recipient several years later. Like Kim, it was a mother who got to see the kids grow up. Pretty rewarding deal for him. Best of luck to the McGrath's.

Incredible Lady!

Realizing she / Jeremy are in a position to help others while she's in that state, is priceless.

We've all been touched in some form by one of these illnesses.

What a great thing the McGrath's have done, and how lucky the rest of us are to have shared in the experience with them,

Thoughts, prayers and well wishes.

Speechless. Amazing words by an amazing woman.

One of my best friend's wives was just diagnosed with cervical cancer, on their first wedding anniversary, a few days before the 1st anniversary of his mothers death from cancer.

I fucking hate cancer and what it does to people and their families. I'm so angry I could spit.

It's amazing how a few paragraphs can make you understand how real something is. Hope they find the match, and god bless them for what is surely helping others with everyone who registered as a result of promoting the cause. Giving blood or marrow truly does save lives and will certainly affect someone in your life at one point or another. Registering to be on the marrow list only takes about 10 minutes and giving blood only takes a half hour and can be done every 2 months... I would encourage anyone who reads this to do both.

That really putS life into perspective, what an increadible lady and an increadible family.

GOD BLESS & STAY STRONG!!!!!

I have had the pleasure of meeting Jeremy many times in the 90s and he always treated me great. Im sorry to hear the problems Kim is having, I have never had the pleasure of meeting her. But Im sure she is a first rate lady. Now like Jeremy always showed why he is/was SHOWTIME, now in a even more pressure situation Kim is stepping up to that name also. I commend her and Jeremy on their efforts to help others in their time of need. I watched my grandfather suffer a 2 year death from cancer when I was a kid in the mid 80s. Its not only tough on the person with it but loved ones even more. After my grandfathers death my grandma had lost most of her fight, fighting the cancer with him and didnt make it much more than another year.

Very moving. I am saddened by anybody having to deal with that and touched by her bravery. I pray for a complete recovery.
