The gift of life. Hear some of the myths -- and facts -- about stem cell donation

CBC Newfoundland Morning

A young Newfoundland woman on a summer break from university has been learning a lot, all the same. Chloe Griffiths has become informed about stem cell donation, and she's been sharing what she knows. Griffiths is a volunteer with Canadian Blood Services. Her inspiration, though, is close to home. Griffiths' aunt, Penney Simms of Corner Brook, is battling cancer and will be receiving a stem cell transplant. Chloe Griffiths and Penney Simms, joined us by phone.
