  7. Hey 16 to 30 year olds in the UK:
    anthonynolan.org/help-save-a-l

    You can donate blood but also stem cells or bone marrow to help people.
    I only recently got a potential match in my 30s, and registered at uni, so it can be a background thing.
    (I honestly forgot about Anthony Nolan entirely in that time.)

    So... Yeah! Also 1/3 I may not be a close enough match or they need different treatment or something,
    so I'm glad of the opportunity but aware it still may not happen.

    And share this with any teenagers or 20s people who may be interested. Or their friends or whatever, idk.

  14. Colorado’s Democratic AG, Phil Weiser, defended the #law, saying #states have long regulated #medical practices, including treatments carried out through #speech, to protect #patients from substandard care.
