Hey there everyone

I follow the story of (http://baldyblog.

<http://baldyblog.freshblogs.co.uk/> freshblogs.co.uk/) and

his bone marrow transplant because of AML and CML - the only person

in the world known to have both these leukemias. He is in the UK

He has done an incredible job of video blogging his transplant and

sharing with so many others the the real aspect of going through all

this. He did not do this for any personal gain and has helped so

many others with his honesty and ability to put into plain english

what otherwise sounds like greek. He has also brought out into the

open what a bone marrow transplant really entails. Really some

wonderful watching and reading.

Now, wonderfully, " Baldy's Blog " is a finalist in an international

competition - the results will be announced in Las Vegas at the end

of next week. And he can do with some votes. So far he is ahead of

anyone else, but com'on, lets help him get this award! I have looked

at the other blogs in the medical category, and have to say that his

is the most touching, personal and real and, obviously, deal with

cml. He will gain nothing by winning this award, he wont even be

able to come to the USA to get it. There is no monetary value to it

at all. Just an incredible feather in his cap.

Will you all please go to the site

http://baldyblog. <http://baldyblog.freshblogs.co.uk/,> freshblogs.co.uk/,

click on the big graphic there to

vote, look for the Best Medical/Health Issues Blog it's under the

second heading - and vote for Baldy's Blog.

Read his blog, its quite a ride!

Thanks everyone..... :-)

love and light
