Mitch - Stem cell donor
I joined the registry for the same reason I donate blood plasma: to give back to someone in need. I’m fortunate to lead a healthy lifestyle and have a body that recovers easily. Not everyone is so lucky. If I can help someone without it significantly impacting my life, it’s a no-brainer.

I was back to the gym the next day and back to work the next day, it really doesn’t take too much of a toll on your body. If you are able to donate look into it, do your research, find out why it’s important and then sign up. 110 percent I would do it again in a heartbeat.
