Ultimately, the doctors told my husband that there was nothing more they could do and that I was dying.

My sister reached out to AAMDSIF, used the Find a Specialist tool, and found the Aplastic Anemia specialist I needed.

I was airlifted to the specialist, where, after a three-month stay, they saved my life. The great care team that treats my disease is in my life because of AAMDSIF.

You can save a life, too, through your support of AAMDSIF programs. Donate now: aamds.org/donate
