Got to this site while DIGGing for stories: christine.site.ph.


No indication of the beneficiary being Pinoy on the DIGG story headline, but .PH on the URL stood right out and got me looking for more info. From the site:


Our beloved Christine is in the US battling cancer, and urgently needs to find a bone marrow donor. Unfortunately, finding a perfect match for her bone marrow type is particularly difficult. This is hard enough for the average person; there are over 20,000 types of bone marrow, so the average person has a 1 in 20,000 chance of finding a match. These numbers are even worse for Christine. Because she is Filipino, she needs to find a donor of the same ethnic background, and there are hardly any Filipinos on the US National Registry.



So if there are any US-based Filipinos willing to help, please do get in touch with info@christine.site.ph, and do check out the website at christine.site.ph.
