Mel Mann: Never found a donor and I still became HISTORY

Mel Mann, 

“It’s My Birthday!

30 years ago, when I was diagnosed with terminal leukemia, l thought I would soon become HISTORY if I didn’t find a lifesaving bone marrow donor.

Well, I never found a donor, and I still became HISTORY. I am HISTORY, because of an experimental drug called Gleevec. I’m a survivor.

I even saw my 5 year-old daughter grow up and become a physician. ~ Mel Mann, World’s Longest Living Gleevec & TKI Survivor.”
