We have an update on the bone marrow search for Madeline Guarraia.
Her brother, Anthony, is a “perfect 10/10 match” for bone marrow, according to their mother’s Facebook page.
Amie Guarraia wrote that Anthony was a big surprise when he came because she got pregnant just as Madeline was ending treatment the first time around. Amie says the two have a very close bond, and that this news just solidifies that.
As recently as Sunday, Amie wrote on Facebook that Anthony and Madeline have such a strong connection, but that “it is very unlikely that the children are a match for her bone marrow transplant.”
Amie asks that people continue to attend bone marrow drives because it can help save the lives of many children, not just Madeline.
Here is Amie’s latest post from Tuesday morning:
