Almost two months post donation

So much has happened in two months, yet every day I still think of my recipient. I have asked DKMS for updates and we still have not heard from the patients doctor. I'm really getting anxious to hear how they are doing.

My wife and I volunteered at the Byron Nelson golf tournament to help register donors for DKMS. It was late in the day on the last day of the tournament, so it was challenging to get folks to stop as they are herding to their cars, but we were able to get some great people to register! We are trying to work in another opportunity to register at the Colonial Golf tournament this week if we can fit it in. The registration drive to be held at Microsoft is still in the works too. Hopefully, I can continue to have an impact with helping to save additional lives. I would love to be able to donate again and again, but I doubt I will match anyone else in the future, so helping out in other ways is all I can do.
