Family and friends of Paul Goodman, a member of Orange County Buddhist Church, released the following appeal for help.

Paul Goodman, 29, is a beloved son, brother, and friend. Unfortunately, he recently relapsed from leukemia and is in desperate need of a bone marrow match, and thus we are looking for donors to register.
The ideal match for Paul would be a donor who is 50% Japanese and 50% Caucasian, and between the ages of 18-44 years old. The bone marrow pool of donors is limited for people of color and even more limited for biracial people like Paul. Paul’s sister is a 50% match, but a 75% or higher match would give Paul a greater chance of beating this.
