Doctors have told Oscar’s parents that he only has three months to Iive unless he can find a stem cell donor. Luckily for Oscar, he had some very good people around him who were going to do whatever they could to save his life.
Laura Senter, Oscar’s teaching assistant, was devastated when she Iearned about his diagnosis. She went right to the school, where teachers ended up organizing a massive event in search for a stem cell donor for Oscar.
The organizers behind the event made a public announcement, calling on anyone between the ages of 17 and 55 to come and register as donors.
