A little boy has a big favor to ask: Zach MacDonald Denton wants you to register and become a bone-marrow donor.

He was diagnosed with aplastic anemia, and he did well for a year with blood transfusions and medicine before being diagnosed with another blood disorder.

The only cure now is a bone marrow transplant. To see if you're compatible, you can attend a testing event Monday night:

Hermosa Vista Elementary School

2626 N. 24th Street

Mesa, Ariz. 85213

5:30 p.m. to 7 p.m.

Registration only takes five to 10 minutes and consists of a cheek swap.

For more information, call 480.254.7976.
