A retired New York fireman who helped pull victims from the 9/11 terrorist attacks and risked his own life has received a lifesaving bone marrow transplant from a UK man
. Sal Parisi, now aged 68, was one of the courageous firefighters who gallantly responded on the frontline as the US suffered tragic terror attacks.
Stephen Dawkins, Associate Head of School for Student Experience in Coventry University’s School of Media and Performing Arts, was found to be an almost perfect match. Sal’s bone marrow transplant, thanks to Stephen’s donation, was a success, granting the American hero a pivotal lifeline. “My grandchildren – six of them – were all born before I was even diagnosed, and thanks to the transplant I got to see them grow up. The oldest one is only eight now, but they were babies when I was diagnosed, and now I can play ball and get involved in sports with them all and enjoy their company, and that’s all thanks to Stephen Dawkins.”
