Donate blood and stem cells, save a life!!!

It’s not fun, but I am a tough cookie.

Living with DBA teaches you to enjoy the moment.

We are not the first to say this and we will not be the last, the DBAF has saved our child’s life. I cringe at the thought of what her care would be had we not met the DBAF.

Though in our hearts we desire to be free from DBA, we have learned patience, love, trust, perseverance, compassion, courage, and to cry.

It is the tough things I have gone through with DBA that has made me the man I am.

For me, DBA has blocked the path to my goal. To get there, I’ll have to fight it and one day, I will reach that goal because I didn’t give up!

Same journey, different paths. Bound together by the same heartaches, triumphs, and hope for a cure. That’s DBA Family!

Having DBA has taught me to not give up the fight and to do the best that I can. The DBAF has become more than just a source of friends and knowledge, but a family of support through the bad and the good.
