Rihanna is thrilled – and grateful – that the leukemia-stricken New York City mother of two she came forward to help has found a bone marrow donor.
“There are no words to express how happy I am for Lisa [Gershowitz-Flynn] and her family,” Rihanna said . “I am so thankful she found a donor and I feel honored to be a part of such an amazing miracle.”
Last month the Grammy-winning singer put out a plea for help, and Flynn, 41, who learned she has an aggressive form of cancer called Acute Myelogenous Leukemia the day after Thanksgiving, quickly found a donor.
“This blessing has continued to keep me aware of how precious life really is,” says Rihanna. “I will be praying for Lisa and her family as they move into a hopeful future.”
