16-year-old Leo from Bromsgrove has been diagnosed with leukaemia and needs a stem cell transplant so he can have a second chance at life.
“Leo is my whole world. He’s my mini me, my greatest joy, and he deserves a second chance at life. Watching him face this fight with such courage breaks my heart, but it also fills me with pride. He deserves so much more than this struggle, he deserves a future,” shares Leo’s dad, Warren.
Leo’s family have organised an event on Sunday 23 November in Bromsgrove, where people can join the register. From 1pm – 6pm at St Godwalds Church Hall, the local community can come down and complete some quick swabs with DKMS, to find out if they are a match for Leo, or another patient in urgent need of a stem cell transplant.
Joining the stem cell donor register is quick and easy – a few minutes of your time gives hope to Leo and patients like him of finding their perfect match.
Come and register. It’s a three minute cheek swab!
