Here's a touching story about a boy who recently lost a battle to leukemia due to not finding a match for a bone marrow transplant. Yet, through special blood and bone marrow drives set up for him in the community, more than 25 people who attended have so far gone on to donate bone marrow, with most saving lives. Through this, nearly 4,000 people have registered into the national bone marrow registry as potential donors who could one day save lives around the world.
It is fortunate that since 1984, the Watchtower Society has made acceptance of bone marrow, the source of blood, a conscience matter.
