Legacy Lives On Through Bone Marrow Hope
Description
Two heroic women, pediatric nurse Jenny Rice and psychologist Dr. Laura Gerak, both lost to leukemia but are now immortalized through a powerful bone marrow drive at Akron Children’s Hospital. Their families, especially Jenny’s kids Casey and Ben, are turning grief into hope, registering to donate and rallying others to join. This year’s drive, held on Dr. Gerak’s birthday, honors their legacy of compassion and seeks to diversify the registry so more children can find life-saving matches. One simple swab could be the gift of time — and maybe even life — for someone else.
