Is the faq section that gives some detail and other pages on this site instruct on how to sign up





It didnt seem to give as great detail as the US Marrow donors registry site does.


http://www.marrow.org is the US site and I think it gives more detail.





There are two ways to have it done, one you will be awake relativily pain free in out patient and it will be a week or two of inconvience.


The other way will be an out patient surgical proceedure, and will involve maybe 3-4 weeks of inconvience.


There is some minor pain, during your inconvienced time, but no big deal.
