Send Bay some energy today...

He's in recovery and could use some extra good vibes, I'm sure. Spare a thought for his family as well... pray, think about them or just send some love.

Thanks!

Bay's surgery went well!

Keep the positive energy and love coming! Thank you so much for your support. Bay's surgery went well and he's now in ICU... Great ways you can help:

Take a moment and send some love his way

(through prayer, good thoughts, happy vibes, good juju- we'll take it!)

Register as a donor

Bay's match will most likely share some or all of his heritage- German and Japanese. But there are so many other people waiting for a match- and you could be the one to help them, even if you aren't a match for Bay.

So, if you are willing and able to be a bone marrow donor, please register! You can do so at a drive near you or ask for a kit to be sent to you. Just don't forget to actually do the swabs, fill out the form and mail it in!

Spread the word

Tell everyone you know! Subscribe/follow/friend us on social media and please keep sharing our posts so we can keep the energy going!

Thanks so much for ALL your help!

Michael Lewis and Baylor are asking you to #rally4bay

Back in 2011 I remember seeing a tweet with that title, that call- Amit Gupta needs you! Amit is the founder of one of my favourite companies ever- Photojojo - a quirky, fun online store for photography and technology geeks (my own description there). His friends rallied and created this amazing social media campaign that inspired so many people to repost, retweet, share his story and ask their friends and family to go and get registered as bone marrow donors. Amit also took the time to talk about the shortage of minority and mixed ethnicity donors on the registry. This is still a big problem and what makes it harder to find a match for Bay. Amit found a donor. This social media thing works. We can tell lots of people and inspire them to register and we can find a match. We can. Please, please, please go get registered or tell someone about how important this is.
