Jazz + marrow + blogs, or: We need to help
It seems that renowned jazz saxaphonist Michael Brecker is seriously ill with MDS (myelodysplastic syndrome) and he must have a marrow or blood stem cell transplant (which apparently has nothing to do with embryonic stem cells) soon. Read yesterday's New York Times article and Matzoh Cajones plea. There's an informative FAQ page and you can contribute money online to The Marrow Foundation, 100% of which is used for testing potential donors, or contact them about being a donor.
