Peyman:Lymphoma Patient
Hi, I am Setareh, 28 yrs old, a dentist in my 2nd yr of Maxillofacial residency. I have been diagnosed with an aggressive form of Acute Leukemia (AML) and I'm being treated at MD Anderson cancer center.
I am not identified by my cancer.

I am not just another patient.

I am a soldier.

I am a survivor.

I am a human.
"My name is Parsis and I’m 2 ½ years old. I love my maman and baba very much, because they kiss me all the time and say I’m their Persian Princess. I hate it when I go to get blood…my mommy says it is good for me; but it hurts"
Hi. My name is Sam Mirchi. My only chance of surviving this killer disease is the stem cells from the matching blood donor.  That one special person could be you.  You could save my life, help me be there for my family. Please be my hero for life.  
" I am writing to you from the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) at Jackson Memorial Hospital, in Miami, Florida. Unfortunately after only four months living in America, in November 2007, I was diagnosed with a rare blood disorder, which has gradually led to bone marrow failure.
"I have Leukemia (AML) and looking for a bone marrow donor. I have a 12 years old daughter whom I love very much.
"I am 36 years old. In 2008, I was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma. Three months after an 8 months round of chemo and radiation, the disease came back and spread through my bones."

Hi. My name is Sam (Samuel) Mirchi.

On January 2011 I was diagnosed with an extremely aggressive form of acute Leukemia (AMML).  I always led a healthy life so that I could be there for my wife and the two children, send them to college and see them graduate.  I know that I could be the best grandpa.

However, all of my dreams have been shattered by this devastating disease.

I was my kids super hero who is now crippled by this debilitating disease for, which I can not do anything except for pleading for your help.

My only chance of surviving this killer disease is the stem cells from the matching blood donor.  That one special person could be you.  You could save my life, help me be there for my family. Please be my hero for life.
