3-Year-Old Boy Donates Bone Marrow To Sister To Save Her Life
Jameson Kessler of Shelbyville, Ind., wears a skeleton costume and calls himself "Marrow Man." He is, after all, his sister Samantha's hero. This summer, Jameson will donate bone marrow to Samantha, who suffers from a rare blood disorder called thalassemia, NBC's WTHR in Indianapolis reports. The main cure for the red blood cell-destroying condition is a bone marrow transplant from a perfect match, according to Cure Thalassemia.
