Leukemia is a cancer of the blood or bone marrow and is characterized by abnormal production by multiplication of white blood cells called leukocytes. One known personality in the Philippines who is diagnosed by this disease is the popular host of Eat Bulaga and Filipino Rap musician Francis Magalona. He formally released a statement regarding his condition at a noontime variety TV Show Eat Bulaga last August. This was a great shock for everyone who is closed with Francis M and the showbiz world. Cancer really hit people unexpectedly and anybody can have it. No one is exempted, rick or poor, children or adult and male or female.

In his condition, it requires blood transfusion and requires a lot of individuals to donate blood to cope up with his scheduled blood transfusion in the future. That’s why having a website like the Philippines Blood Registry in the Philippines that allows you to search for blood donors in the future is a convenience for both the patients and families of the patients.
