Here's a profile and short video of a 26-year-old Nigerian-born athlete who is battling cancer and working to get more African-Americans to sign up for the bone marrow registery. All it takes is a cotton swab, folks. I never knew that.

And here's a link to his blog: http://nigeria2014.wordpress.com/2010/01/

He just graduated from Yale Law School and is working to become, in 2014, the first Nigerian delegate to compete in the Winter Olympics, all while battling  stem cell leukemia and lymphoblastic lymphoma. Also, he went back to Nigeria to help get more people to sign up for the bone marrow registery.Whew,  makes me feel lazy. I only have one cancer to beat and I fret over that. I'm taking notes, though. I like the way he sets long-term goals despite the obstacles he's facing currently.
