So we wrote this song and we put it out and there's an awareness campaign to register for this, particularly not that if you're white, you don't need to do it, but particularly for ethnic minorities, because blood marrow bone types are highly specific, as you're saying. And I think black or African-American people are the most underrepresented people. group on the bone marrow registry.

If you're white, I think you have a 70% chance of matching with a bone marrow donor. If you're black, I think it's 20%.

Yes. So they need more from black people, Hispanic people, Native people, Asian people here in America. So... We did this awareness campaign because it's free. All you got to do is spit in a tube. And I have a friend from another band who beat leukemia because he had a donor. And then Lamb of God's old merch girl died of leukemia. She was diagnosed and a week later she was dead.

Yeah, and then she was dead, I think, seven to ten days later. Evie Carano, I miss her. But, so that's the beginning chapter. And it's pushing towards awareness and... And the chapter is about mortality, basically, because this young man who died, I befriended, faced his own mortality with such grace and a very stoic demeanor. And I learned a lot from this inspirational guy named Wayne Ford.

Six years after or so, that song came out. We're in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic. Nobody's touring. Nobody's doing anything. And I'm walking one afternoon over a bridge in Richmond, Virginia, and I'm like, what's going on with my life? This is crazy.

And I check my email and I get an email forwarded to me from our old publicist from a dude who's like, hey, man, because of your song, I signed up for Be The Match. And I matched with a patient. It's the late 60s person. And I'm going to donate. And I immediately emailed this young man. His name is Todd Seaman from Arkansas. We're great friends to this day.
