Story

<p>Thanks for visiting the fundraising page for me David Potter!</p> <p>I'm running the 2012 London Marathon and 1/2 marathons leading up to it, to say thanks to the Anthony Nolan Trust who found 2 stem cell donors out of their bone marrow register of 10 million donors, saving the life of our son Ben, who will be 6 years old on 22/11/11.</p> <p>As parents we cannot even begin to express how grateful we are. Every day now is a bonus, every cuddle with him just amazing..</p> <p>We would be so grateful if you could help us to say thank you.</p> <p>Your donation however large or small will help enormously. It recruits and maintains a new donor on the register, whose stem cells could save more than 1 life! and funds research by Anthony Nolan's own research team into leukemia and cancer.</p> <p>We personally know children who are waiting for donors.</p> <p>As parents we now know what that last sentence really means.</p> <p>So do please help us to help others; thank you so much.</p> <p>Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It&rsquo;s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Anthony Nolan Trust gets your money faster and, if you&rsquo;re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.</p> <p>BECOME A STEM CELL DONOR and save lives directly! Your stem cells can now be harvested in the same way as a blood donation session, with the patient receiving a small bag of blood in a transfusion that will save their lives. If you are below the age of 40 years, please please to contact the Anthony Nolan Trust on the link below, and save someone's life! A life like Ben's...</p> <p><br>kind regards</p> <p>David, Jenni, Ben &amp; Willow</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>sponsorship and other enquiries <a href="mailto:davidmpotter@fsmail.net">davidmpotter@fsmail.net</a></p> <p>Ben's Blog <a href="http://www.normanfpotter.com/ben">www.dmp1.co.uk/ben</a> read about Ben's experience</p> <p>The Anthony Nolan Trust <a href="http://www.anthonynolan.org.uk">www.anthonynolan.org.uk</a> or telephone 020 7284 1234</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
