Minority donors are especially needed since the chance of finding a match is better in their own ethnic group.

Last week I trained two OBGYN physicians at EAMC and yesterday (Wednesday) I trained six out of 22 labor and delivery nurses. I'll train more nurses on Feb. 8 and eight more physicians and the rest of the nurses on Feb. 13. Once everyone is trained, we can start collecting cord blood. We should be up and running by Valentine's Day - that's the goal. If not, it should be shortly thereafter.

We can't wait to start this program. Cord blood can be a possible treatable option for about 70 different diseases.

We are very excited to add East Alabama Medical Center to our list. The staff there have been so enthusiastic in helping us make this program work. I'm optimistic this will be a phenomenal program.
