Help4Ezra
UPDATE - DECEMBER 2016: Ezra is now over three years post-second transplant and is doing great! He is now 7 years old and in second grade, loving life and enjoying being with other children. We remain forever grateful for everyone's support and efforts to find Ezra a donor. We continue to encourage everyone to join the bone marrow donor registry and to support Gift of Life in its critical work!
UPDATE - DECEMBER 2014: Ezra continues the long road to recovery. He suffered a serious transplant-related complication this past March, and he continues to recover from the consequences of that set back. Ezra's new immune system is beginning to show signs of healthy function. We are hopeful that with time, he will develop a fully functioning immune system. Please see http://www.facebook.com/help4ezra or http://curingezra.blogspot.com for updates. Thank you all for your continued support!
UPDATE - FEB 12, 2014, Ezra received his second transplant on August 23, 2013. While there have been bumps on the road, he is making progress and growing a new, healthy immune system.
Please see http://www.facebook.com/help4ezra or http://curingezra.blogspot.com for updates. We will always continue to raise awareness of the need for more donors to join the registry. Please register to be a donor or donate to sponsor a donor today!
UPDATE - JAN 30 , 2013, Ezra's transplant has sadly failed. He is doing well and recovering, but he still needs to find a matching bone marrow donor to have a chance at a cure. Please order a cheek swab kit or make a donation to sponsor the testing of one of the thousands of donors on the wait list. Please help us find Ezra's miracle match!
UPDATE - May 17, 2012, 3 year old Ezra Jordan Fineman received a stem cell transplant at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York City. We were not able to find him a bone marrow donor that would be the ideal match for him. The source of the stem cells was partially matched umbilical cord blood. We are praying that these cord blood cells give Ezra the new immune system that he needs. His doctors will continue to search for a match for Ezra until we know that the transplant was a success. We are still asking for people to join the registry or make a donation to get another donor off the waitlist for Ezra and for other patients in need. For every $60 raised, one donor is added to the registry.
You can follow Ezra's progress at http://curingezra.blogspot.com or on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/Help4Ezra .
We are forever grateful to all of you for helping Ezra.
Ezra Jordan Fineman is 3 years old and loves basketball, music and his tricycle. He has a rare primary immune deficiency called Hyper IgM Syndrome. The only cure is a stem cell transplant. He needs to find a donor that is his perfect match. That perfect match for Ezra or another patient could be YOU.
Please order a swab kit today or attend an upcoming drive. Please consider donating $60 to cover the cost of the test, but donate as much or as little as you can! You can also make a donation to help pay for other donors to be tested. There are over 11,000 donor test kits that have not been processed due to insufficient funds. For every $60 raised, one donor is entered into the registry.
Check back for updates on our efforts to recruit donors for Ezra and for others.
