Lil Mama Pays Jasmina A Visit

Tags: Jasmina, Lil' Ma, The Source magazine

On April 2nd, Rapper and TV personality Lil Mama paid a visit at NYU Hospital to pay a visit to her favorite 6-year old fan, leukemia patient Jasmina. Celebrities like Rihanna and Kelly Rowland have also called attention to Jasmina’s cause. Jasmina has an estimated two months to live, unless she is able to find a bone marrow donor.

New York residents, including The Source staff participated in screenings at John Allan’s Downtown Club on Trinity Place (photos after the jump). The Source encourages everyone to participate in screenings to help Jasmina fight the life-threatening disease. Whether or not you are a match for Jasmina, you may save another life.

Hi,
I buy the source all the time and I actually happened to come across the site today thru my email. I asw the section on Jasmina. I have personally gone thru having a family member have cancer, getting thru it only to get cancer in another area. My Aunt is still alive today and told me of the many struggles and pain she endured to become healthy yet again. I’m a mother of 4 boys and the only daughter of my side of the family having 3 brothers. It scares me to think that if any of my children ever needed something so life precious that I might not be able to give them what is needed. I’m a donor and I wanted to ask about the resources you knew of for local areas in Texas in regards to donating marrow. I’m not in the same state, but if I could be of any help to a child in need of something so simple and taken for granted without hesitation I would do it.
