When pop princess Rihanna made up her mind to help a leukemia patient, she didn’t realize she would perform a miracle. Rihanna’s assistance was critical in bringing awareness to the plight of Lisa Gershowitz-Flynn who needed a bone marrow transplant to live.
In an email to supporters today, Gershowitz-Flynn, a 41-year-old lawyer, happily reports she has found a donor! “Today a 32-year-old guardian angel consented to be my donor, even though in all likelihood she has never met me and does not know who I am,” Gershowitz-Flynn wrote.
“There are no words to express how happy I am for Lisa and her family,” Rihanna tells PEOPLE exclusively. “I am so thankful she found a donor and I feel honored to be a part of such an amazing miracle.”
“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.” (Source)

That was a great thing that Rihanna did. I’m sure that lady, her family and her friends will be forever grateful to her.
That is really nice of her!
OMG Sandra I know it was killing you to not post about Rihanna yesterday. But I’m glad she’s using her celebrity to help out.
What exactly did Rihanna do?
Other people would probably credit this mircale to sweet baby Jesus but I’m glad Sandra brought the real deal to our attention.
I AM ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE COO COO BANANAS, WHAT IS IT THAT RIHANNA DID?
First giving all honor to God, to the other ministers on the roster, and to you my fellow posters in here….we thank God for everthing Rhianna does. In His name, Amen.
Now she’s in the miracle business AND an Ambassador…what next?
Is there anything that this girl can’t do? Talk about talent….it’s too much for one human to digest!
I saw this story on Extra and Rihanna was not the only Celebrity that helped out with finding her a bone marrow! I can’t think of everybody involved, but Ashanti was one of them so I don’t know why this story is making it seem like Rihanna helped her out alone!
