Meet Eva! She has been battling B-ALL (B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia) since 2020. In the last five and a half years, she received many donations such as a bone marrow transplant from her twin brother, along with countless blood and platelet transfusions from donors at the Boston Donor Center.
Her family is beyond grateful for the impact everyone has made. They even hosted their very own blood drive recently this past July!
“When people donate,” her mother says. “They don’t know which kid will benefit, what their diagnosis is, or how crucial a role their blood product could play in their journey.”
Eva’s story is a reminder that each donor creates a deep impact for patients in need.
