Gcina uBomi Bomntu Ongasoze Uhlangane Naye

By UDanielle V

Ukuqala kwam ukufumana ilayisenisi yam yokuqhuba, ndandichulumancile ukuba ekugqibeleni ndikwazi ukuqhuba ngaphandle kwezithintelo, kodwa ukuze ndikwazi nokubhalisela ukuba ngumnikeli wamalungu omzimba. Nabani na unokuba ngumnikeli, kungakhathaliseki ubudala okanye imbali yonyango, kwaye kulula kakhulu ukubhalisa; ekuphela kwento ekwakufuneka ndiyenze ngelo xesha eNew York yayikukujonga ibhokisi ekwifomu ekwiDMV. Ukuba awukangeni kwiRejistri yoMxhasi kwaye ungathanda, ungabhalisa kwi-DMV yakho yasekhaya njengoko ndenzile, okanye kwi-intanethi i-orgondonor.gov, apho ungafumana khona ulwazi oluthe ngqo lwelizwe lokujoyina ubhaliso. Epreli ngo Inyanga yeSizwe yokuNikela ngoBomi, ngoku iya kuba lixesha elihle lokujoyina!

Ukuba ngumnikeli welungu yinto elula nengazicingeliyo ukuyenza, kwaye zininzi iindlela amalungu akho, amehlo, kunye/okanye izicubu ezinokuthi zincede omnye umntu.

Abantu abangaphezu kwe-100,000 balindele ukutshintshwa kwelungu elisindisa ubomi, kwaye ukufa kwe-7,000 kwenzeka ngonyaka ngamnye e-United States ngenxa yokuba izitho azinikezelwanga ngexesha lokunceda.

Zininzi iindlela onokunikela ngazo. Kukho umnikelo oswelekileyo; oku kuxa unikezela ngelungu okanye inxalenye yelungu ngexesha lokufa kwakho ngenjongo yokufakelwa komnye umntu. Kukho kwakhona umnikelo ophilayo, kwaye kukho iindidi ezimbalwa: umnikelo othe ngqo, apho uchaza ngokuthe ngqo umntu onikela kuye; kunye nomnikelo ongajoliswanga, apho unikela kumntu ngokusekelwe kwimfuno yonyango.

I-Donor Registry igubungela ezi ntlobo zeminikelo, kodwa zikho nezinye iindlela zokwenza iminikelo yokuphila. Unganikela ngegazi, umongo wethambo, okanye iiseli ze-stem, kwaye kukho iindlela ezilula zokubhalisela ukunikela ngayo nayiphi na kwezi. Igazi libaluleke kakhulu ukunikela ngoku; kusoloko kukho ukunqongophala kokunikela ngegazi, kodwa ubhubhani we-COVID-19 wenze oku kwaba mandundu ngakumbi. Ekugqibeleni ndiqalile ukunikela ngegazi kulo nyaka kwi- Kubalulekile indawo ekufutshane nam. Ukuba unomdla wokunikela ngegazi, unokufumana indawo ekufutshane nawe ukuze unikele nge I-American Red Cross.

 

Ndiye ndajoyina Yiba ngumdlalo registry ngethemba lokuba ngenye imini ndinganikela ngomongo kumntu owudingayo. Yiba ngumdlalo udibanisa izigulana ezinomhlaza wegazi obeka ubomi esichengeni, njenge-leukemia kunye ne-lymphoma, kumathambo anokubakho kunye nabanikezeli begazi bentambo abanokuthi basindise ubomi babo. Ukubhalisela i-Be the Match kwakulula ngakumbi kunokubhalisa kwi-Donor Registry okanye umnikelo wegazi; Ndabhalisa e join.bethematch.org kwaye yathatha nje imizuzu embalwa. Emva kokuba ndifumene ikiti yam eposini, ndathatha i-swabs zam ezidleleni ndaza ndazithumela ngoko nangoko. Kwiiveki ezimbalwa kamva, ndafumana isicatshulwa esiqinisekisa yonke into, kwaye ngoku ndiyinxalenye yeRejistri yokufanisa!

Zombini ezi zigqibo zazishiywe lixesha; kude kube yiminyaka embalwa edlulileyo, ekuphela kwento eyayindinqanda ekunikeleni ngegazi yayiluloyiko olukhulu lwenkqubo ngokwayo. Ndingafumana udubulo lwam lomkhuhlane wonyaka kunye nezinye izitofu zokugonya ngaphandle kwengxaki (ukuba nje andizange ndijonge inaliti eya engalweni yam; kuya kuba nzima ukuthatha i-selfie xa ndikwazi. ekugqibeleni ndifumane isitofu sam sokugonya se-COVID-19), kodwa into ethile malunga nemvakalelo yokukhutshelwa kwegazi inokundichwechwela ngaphandle kwaye indenze ndibe neqhwala kwaye ndityhafe ngaphandle kokuba ndilale phantsi ngexesha lokutsalwa kwegazi, kwaye nangona kunjalo, ndandidla ngokufa isiqaqa xa ndivuka emva kokuba begqibile ukuthatha igazi lam. .

Emva koko kwiminyaka embalwa edlulileyo ndandinoloyiko lwempilo kwaye kwafuneka ndifumane i-biopsy yomongo, eyayingamava abuhlungu kum. Ndivile ukuba azisoloko zibuhlungu, kodwa mandikuxelele, ndine-anesthesia yendawo kwaye ndisayikhumbula imvakalelo yenaliti evulekileyo ingena ngasemva kwi-hipbone yam. Ngethamsanqa, ndandilungile, kwaye ndanyangeka ngokupheleleyo kuloyiko lwam lwangaphambili lweenaliti. Ukuhamba kuloo nkqubo kundenze ndacinga ngabantu ekusenokwenzeka ukuba badlule kwi-biopsy yomongo, okanye into enzima ngakumbi, kwaye abalunganga. Mhlawumbi ukuba umntu wayenikele ngomongo wethambo okanye ngegazi ngeba.

Ndisayicaphukela imvakalelo yokuthathwa kwegazi lam, kodwa ukwazi ukuba ndinceda umntu osweleyo kwenza ukuba loo mvakalelo ikhwankqisayo ixabiseke. Kwaye nangona i-biopsy yomongo wam yayingeyonto imnandi kwaye ndandibuhlungu kangangokuba ndandinengxaki yokuhamba kwiintsuku ezimbalwa emva koko, ndiyazi ukuba ndingaphinda ndidlule kuyo ukuba oko kuthetha ukusindisa ubomi bomnye umntu, nangona ndiya ungaze udibane nabo.
