Hello. My name is Krishna Mohan Vattipalli. I am from India , a PhD student in the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at Portland State University , Portland, OR . My wife, Sailaja Chada , is also an active PhD student in the Department of Chemistry at the same school. Early this year, all our hearts were agonized when we came to know that my wife was diagnosed with Acute Leukemia. Only solution to bring her back out of this life-threatening blood disorder is to conduct a Bone Marrow Transplant.

This transplant can be performed only with the help from a donor. Bone Marrow Donors with South-Asian Ethnicity can definitely help save Sailaja. I sincerely request you to join the National Marrow Donor Program (NMDP) and be a life saving (or giving) donor. The procedure in joining the NMDP is very easy (a simple Q tip swipe on the inner cheek). The more of us on NMDP, the better chances my wife has to live her dreams. Please forward this email to your friends.

I can’t imagine a world without my Sailaja. PLEASE HELP!

Regards,

Krishna Mohan
