Calling all angels to MARCH BREAK SALE PAYMENTS FOR 90 DAYS, help leukemia patient NO 6 MO. OR 1 YEAR An Oakville woman is calling on anyone who is willing to help her in her fight against cancer by getting tested to see if they are a bone marrow match. On Feb. 6, Laurie Burrows, a holistic nutritionist and personal trainer who lives in the Lakeshore Woods community, was diagnosed with acute leukemia. She is currently staying at Princess Margaret Hospital. It appears that after the first round of chemotherapy, she is one of a very, very small percentage for whom that treatment is not the best option. She needs a bone marrow transplant. Burrows has been told by her doctors that the most suitable donor match would be someone of her cultural descent (Slovak), and preferably males aged 17-35. However, regardless of descent, anyone willing to be tested for a bone marrow match can go to www.blood. ca or call 1-888-2-DONATE (1-888-236-6283). Those in the U.S. can contact the National Marrow Donor Program at www.marrow.org.
