Mrs. Elaine Robins was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia. To put her Leukemia into remission, she needs a blood-only donation (no surgery) of marrow stem cells from a matching donor. A simple cheek swab at home is enough to identify a match.
Moshe and Miriam Robins are former residents of Woodmere, and siblings of Rabbi Meir & Sara Kotowitz, current residents of Woodmere.
Moshe’s mother Elaine Robins was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia in June. Elaine has been through two intensive rounds of chemo. To put her Leukemia into remission, she needs a blood-only donation (no surgery) of marrow stem cells from a matching donor, ideally aged 18 to 40.
Unfortunately, no donor match has been found.
Can you save Elaine or another person’s life?
