Help Dr. Nalini Ambady … now!!

NaliniAmbady3Nalini Ambady is a beloved friend, renowned researcher and professor at Stanford University, and the active mom of two teenage daughters, Maya and Leena.  She is also fighting for her life. Just a few days after celebrating Thanksgiving with her family and friends, Nalini was diagnosed with a recurrence of leukemia, which she first battled in 2004. Now, she urgently needs a bone marrow transplant from a genetically matched donor. Someone out there is a perfect match, but they may not be on the registry yet. That someone can literally save her life – and it could be you. Nalini needs your help.

Time is short, and the holidays are here. This is your chance to give a gift that really matters. Please daughtersbecome a registered bone marrow donor by attending a bone marrow drive in your area or registering online for free. It only takes a few minutes and you could literally save a life.

 

It’s time to use the social connections we have developed through emails, facebook, blogs etc…   and try to save a life!!

We need your help in two simple ways:

– Register yourself to the Bone Marrow Registry (USA)

– Register yourself to the Marrow Donor Registry (INDIA)

– Help us spread the word and encourage your friends and family to register, and ask them to help us spread the word similarly!!!

Here is a message from Aneeta Rattan, postdoctoral scholar at Standford University:

“I want to personally ask you to help. My amazing and wonderful postdoc advisor, mentor, and friend, Professor Nalini Ambady of the psychology department, has had a relapse of Leukemia, which she first had in 2004. She needs a bone marrow donor. PLEASE HELP. It is a tragedy to consider the possibility that there is a match out there, but (s)he is simply not on the registry. You can fix that with just a few minutes of your time.”

– Aneeta Rattan, postdoctoral scholar with Nalini

Even if you are registered or not, I request you to watch these few video clips:

They are part of the class at Standford University….   They are few years old, but the message is the same, and I believe the power of social media is nothing – if we, the people, don’t know how to use it…!!!

  1. તમારે ઉપર મુજબ સુચવેલિ (મુંબઇ ટાટા મેમોરિયલ હોસ્પીટલ નો સંપર્ક કરવાની) સલહા નો અમલ કરવો જોઇયે

  2. Please contect Tata Memmorial Hospital at Mumbai. They have a bank to assist such cases. Recently a private hospital issued an advt. through which the hospital claimed that now bloodless extraction of bone-marrow is available with them. I wish Dr.Nalini asap locates a donor and gets well!–Himanshu Muni.
