One-year-old Ayelet and two-year-old Ezra need a match
One-year-old Ayelet and two-year-old Ezra are currently searching for their miracle DNA matches to save their lives. Gift of Life has organised several testing sessions to find potential donors so that these Jewish children will not die. Both children's families are of Ashkenazi / Sephardi, Polish / Hungarian / Caucasian backgrounds and unfortunately a match has not been found amongst family members or within the world wide donor registries, and their chances of finding a match are slim but nonetheless possible.
