A six-year-old Greenwich Village girl has found two possible bone marrow donors.
The family of Jasmina Anema says tests show two people are near-perfect matches.
The news came just a day after tests showed her cancer cells to be in remission, clearing the way for her to have a life-saving marrow transplant. Anema has been hospitalized since January.
She will undergo another bone marrow test tomorrow.
Since neither potential donor is a perfect match, there's a chance her body might reject the marrow.
