Thanks you to everyone who participated in the Bone Marrow Registry Week! I had so many new visitors, and learned so much about all of you through your comments. I am still going through and visiting each person who came by this week. I hope something you read made you think about joining the Registry, and that you will pass your thoughts about the process on to people in your Real World. For the blogging world, I've made a button that you are welcome to take and place on your site. Please link it to the National Marrow Registry Program at http://www.marrow.org/.I encourage you to ask me any questions that you have about my individual condition or opinions. With questions about facts I can direct you in the right direction or give general answers. There are no topics that are off limits with me!
On to the prizes...

Selecting the winners from the drawing was actually the most time consuming part of this entire giveaway process! Because I allowed extra entries for posting about the giveaway, I couldn't use the Random Number generator. Instead, I printed out everyone's comments and cut them into strips. The strips all went into a galvanized bucket and were stirred up before five were pulled out. Luckily my cutie niece and nephews helped me cut them all up while we watched a movie!

And thank YOU, Elizabeth! I am so excited to be a winner! You're the winner though because this has brought attention to bone marrow transplants. I learned something I didn't know before...that they no longer get bone marrow through a painful needle in the hip. Bet this made a lot more people willing to register!
Hugs
Kady
Congrats to the winners! Great and informative contest! :) Thank you so much!
This was the most meaningful giveaway I've participated in. Great format with the information and questions to answer. I'm so happy to be a winner. Thanks, Elizabeth, for hosting this, and happy birthday on two years since your bone marrow transplant.
