“If I have the opportunity to donate again I would not hesitate for a second.”

December 10, 2015

Niki is an Occupational Therapist from Jamaica Hills, New York who signed up as a donor in 2005. He registered at the Indian Day Parade and became a match for a 24 year old male in 2009. “I was surprised to find out how rare it is to become a match and I was very excited and nervous at the same time! As a graduate student, my procedure was during finals week! It can be a very busy time for students. I quickly went in for my procedure and was out in a short amount of time pain free and studied for my finals the same night! If I have the opportunity to donate again I would not hesitate for a second.”
