New York, October 3, 2008.  It was an emotional moment when marrow recipient and now former non-hodgkins patient, Mr. Robert Jewell, from Cheasepeake, Virginia met for the first time his life-saving marrow donor, Romery Granado from the Bronx, New York.

This emotional meeting took place at The Icla da Silva Foundation's 16th Anniversary Dinner & Dance on September 24, 2008 at the Tavern on the Green Restaurant in New York City.
