Ram Kapoor pitches in for friend
In his blog, Ram Kapoor has appealed to his fans to help his friend and colleague who is suffering from blood cancer. Though he has not named him we have learnt that the person is a crucial part of Ekta's Kahaani Hamaaray Mahabharaat Ki
The blog states, "A close friend and colleague has been diagnosed with blood cancer and he is urgent need of a bone marrow transplant. From what the doctors have told us, the transplant itself seems like a relatively simple process - pretty much like a blood donation.
However, the common perception that bone marrow transplants are painful makes it difficult to find donors. In this blog I have summed up the exact requirement, and I request you to spread this message to as many people as you can - through email, Orkut, Facebook - anything you have at your disposal.
You could also mail it to ram.writes@gmail.com."
Further he adds, "If your blood group is A Positive, and if you are below 50 years of age, you could be a match. What's important is that you need to be willing to donate bone marrow. Like I said earlier, modern technology has made the process itself simple and almost exactly like a blood donation. Once we have your contact, we will arrange for a simple blood test to find if you are a match. When the bone marrow match is confirmed by the doctors, we will arrange for the transplant of the marrow itself, which will happen in Vellore, Chennai. The patient's family will arrange for all expenses to be paid. All they need is 2 days of your time (one, to travel to Chennai, and one, for the transplant itself)."
The operation could happen anytime after the 10th of July, 2008. "The more people we reach out to, the more chances we have of finding a donor. Forward this message to everyone you can and hopefully, we can help a family in their hour of need. Please come forward guys and try and help save a life," he pleads.
