 EARLIER: 
 
 A Carson mother of three who is set to give birth to twins in two weeks is begging the public for help in saving her life after she was recently diagnosed with the most aggressive form of Leukemia. 
 
 Susie Rabaca was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia in September, and doctors tell her she will need a bone marrow transplant to save her life. 
 
 “So a couple months ago I found out I had leukemia, so I’m looking for a match, a bone marrow transplant match,” Rabaca told FOX 11. 
 
 “There’s 30 million people registered on BeTheMatch.org and none of them are my match, so what I need people to do is join and they send you a kit, a little swab for your mouth, send it back, and if you’re my match it’s as simple as a blood draw, and that can possibly save my life.” 
 
 Rabaca says her children and her family have been her support system through the emotional process, but said they are all scared for her. 
 
 “My 4-year-old, she just holds my hand, grabs my bald head, she just yeah, she’s my Little Rock,” she said. 
 
 Because Rabaca’s DNA profile is a mix of Caucasian and Latina, it’s more complicated to find her a bone marrow match. 
 
 Unfortunately, only her sister came remotely close with five out of ten necessary traits matching. 
 
 She needs somebody to match all ten, and she is begging people to register on Join.bethematch.org/Susie to potentially save her life. 
 
 “Finding my match is everything to me, so I can be here for the three children I have, and the two that I have on the way, it’s everything,” she said. “It’s so easy, there’s no painful procedure, there’s no surgery it’s just swab your mouth and it’s as simple as a blood draw, and you can save somebody’s life, if not mine, somebody elses.”
– After the story of a woman battling cancer while pregnant with twins made headlines, a record number of people signed up to find out if they could donate bone marrow to her—and now Susie Rabaca has found a perfect match. Rabaca, already a mother of three and due to give birth to her twins Dec. 6, needed a 100% match to treat aggressive acute myeloid leukemia. "For me to find one and for it to be 10 out of 10 at that is amazing. Nothing better in the world right now," the Los Angeles 36-year-old tells 6 ABC. She tells the Daily Breeze it's a "miracle." Out of 30 million people on the worldwide registry, none was a match for Rabaca until her story went viral. She's part Caucasian and part Latino, making it more difficult to find a full match. Within days of Rabaca's story first airing on TV, more than 50,000 people had signed up on Be the Match. "Only 3% of our registry is mixed ethnicity and so it can really difficult to find a matching donor," says a Be the Match rep. "The fact that we have identified a potential match for her is really exciting." The anonymous donor is still undergoing testing. Rabaca's bone marrow transplant is tentatively planned for Jan. 9.
