Ambassador story: Nadia Guerra
On December 27, 2011 I was the first one tested and in January 2012 I was notified that I was a match. My mom and sister live about 9 hours from me so, I was only able to make a phone call to share the news. I heard silence after I uttered the words “I’m a match” then screaming, then crying tears of joy.
