(68,539 posts)He was quite young and he had colon cancer that had progressed. He had young kids. His only hope was a bone marrow transplant which was experimental and insurance didn't pay for it. General Motors approved the procedure and paid for it...and he is still healthy. I believe all these years later the procedure is likely much better...good luck!

I just went over the 60 age limit after being on the registry for as long as I knew about it. I never got the call.
