Hemish was recruited by SAMAR to give a sample of his blood for marrow donation. He was put in the National Registry in 1998 and was contacted because his marrow type matched with a patient. That lucky patient was Nidha. Thanks to Hemish, Nidha was able to have a marrow transplant to treat her leukemia. Hemish’s donation has given her another chance at life. Hemish said “It’s just a matter of certain happiness and sense of fulfillment knowing that you helped someone else out. It’s a fantastic experience.”
