Join Burg Event to Find Stem Cell Donor for Saskia, 28, Fighting Leukemia
A registration event to find a stem cell donor for 28-year-old Saskia, diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia, will take place on September 14 in Burg. The main event aims to give Saskia more time with her family, including her six-year-old son, as she hopes to be present for his school enrollment.
Saskia's family and partner, along with the local fire department and other supporters, are organizing the event at the equipment house on Waldstraße 8a. The registration process involves filling out a consent form and taking a cheek swab using three cotton swabs. Healthy individuals aged 17 to 55 can register as potential donors.
The cost of registration is 50 euros, which donors can choose to cover themselves. Those who cannot attend the event can order a registration kit at dkms.de/saskia. Every registration can potentially be a second chance at life for blood cancer patients like Saskia, who is still in urgent need of a matching donor.
The main event in Burg offers a chance to help Saskia spend more time with her loved ones. With no matching donor found yet, every potential donor is crucial. For those unable to attend, ordering a registration kit online is an alternative way to support the cause.
