or -- Michael Brecker still needs stem cells.
My first foray into diary writing here at Kos is going to be a plea for help.
Last June, the wife of jazz saxaphonist Michael Brecker made a plea on Majikthise for a stem cell donor for her husband, who has been diagnosed with MDS.

Today, while enjoying a clip on Crooks & Liars Late Night Music Club, I was shocked to learn that Michael's quest was not successful & he is still looking for a fellow Ashkenazi Jew with a few good stem cells ... & a compassionate heart.
Daily Kos has a tremendously large readership, so this seems to be the logical place to post this plea & to ask for recommends so that the diary stays visible for a day or so, at least, in hopes of finding a donor.
Can you be a donor? Might you know someone who could be?
