The first week of March is set aside to bring attention to the blood and bone marrow diseases, specifically aplastic anemia and Myelodysplastic Syndrome.

Aplastic anemia, or bone marrow failure happens when the bone marrow stops making enough red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets for the body. Aplastic anemia can appear at any age, in any race or gender, it is diagnosed more often in children, young adults and the elderly. It is also more likely to strike Asian-Americans. Each year, between 600 and 900 people in the U.S. learn that they have aplastic anemia.

Myelodysplastic Syndromes or MDS is a group of bone marrow disorders. People with MDS usually lack sufficient red and white blood cells as well as the clotting agent, platelets.
