----- Original Message ----- From: Gimun Sulaiman Sent: Friday, December 09, 2005 5:18 PM Subject: Fund Raising to Help Samiri For Her Stem Cell Transplant
"LOVE OTHERS LIKE YOU LOVE YOURSELF, HELP THE UNKNOWN LIKE YOU HELP THE KNOWN" We would like to thank you for your support in the previous fund raising for Bodhi Virya. Now we have another case which also need your support. A girl named Samiri diagnosed with CML (Chronic Myeloid Leukemia) in 2003 and needs fund about SGD 150,000 for her stem cell transplantation. In the past two years, Samiri's family already spent about SGD 6000 for the treatment and fortunately there was a foundation who is willing to help her by providing free medication which she has to get from Jakarta regularly. But her illness was resistance after the medication within 2 years, and now she is consuming the other medicine which is still in trial status. Samiri's condition was tremendously dropped in the last 6 months. You may notice from her picture below: June 2005 Dec 2005 The hospital has already found a stem cell donor who is Samiri's sister. We would like to let you know that within this past two years, Samiri's activities have never changed. She worked in the day time and went to campus in the night. Finally in June 2005, she was graduated with the predicate of Magna Cum Laude. Samiri has a bright future but is over shadowed with her illness, we need your help to get rid of the shadow and brighten up her life again. A committee has been held to raise the fund for her, with the structure as follows: Advisor Board : Ven.

I have tried so far to obtain funding for Samiri but unfortunately, there are no organisations in Singapore available to suuport non citizens. The letter below: Samiri Tan is a patient of mine who suffers from chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) which has recently evolved into an acute leukaemia phase. She has had CML disease for a few years now. This was initially well controlled on medication including Gleevec but her disease is now resistant to all medication. Her only chance of cure at the moment is a stem cell transplant from her sister. Fortunately, we have found a sister who is matched with her and therefore suitable to be a donor. Unfortunately, the cost of the transplant procedure is high as expensive chemotherapy and other drugs are required for the procedure to be successful. I estimate the cost of the transplant to be around S$150,000.00. The family of Samiri have been trying very hard to find the neccesary funds for this patient. Samiri is a bright and intelligent young woman and this stem cell transplant would potentially be the only life saving procedure for her. Without it, her disease will continue to evolve into life threatening acute leukaemia.
