Match For Paul

Paul (aka P.J.) is almost 40 & needs a bone marrow donor to save his life! He is half-Japanese & half-Mexican, so he will likely match with someone mixed. P.J.

Paul, known to his family and friends as P.J., is on the verge of his 40th birthday. He is half-Japanese, half-Mexican, and is currently looking for a bone marrow donor match. was first diagnosed in February 2016 with non-hodgkin's lymphoma after developing a lump in his left chest. After an initial 6 rounds of chemotherapy, the lump seemed to have disappeared, but came back shortly after his sixt

h treatment. The next round of chemotherapy was, unfortunately, not successful in decreasing the size of the lump. He is now seeking placement in a study for immunotherapy, but will eventually need a bone marrow transplant following treatment. currently has no matches in the national database and needs your help.
