First of all, you should put contact info in your github profile, and in the "about" section of your HN profile (the email field is only visible to you). Many prefer to discuss health matters privately. The issues you face as an ethnic minority are severe. More than 15 years ago, it was an expensive and error prone nightmare to attempt doing an international search across all (or relevant) country specific donor databases. Hopefully things have gotten better since then. If memory serves, there was a national marrow donor database in Iran. Hopefully, you have friends or family who know Persian well enough to help you find it. If you are unable to find a donor match, you might want to consider a cord blood transplant. In short, they use stem cells harvested from cord blood to rebuild your bone marrow after ablative chemo. It was a highly experimental treatment method more than a decade and a half ago, but it did have a number of successes, and the state of the art in treatment has most definitely improved since then. Yes, my knowledge of leukemia treatment research is badly outdated.
