PAMELA Bou Sejean is fighting for her life.
After 16 months battling an aggressive form of Hodgkin's Lymphoma, the 26-year-old has turned to Facebook in a last ditch bid to find the stem cell donor to keep her alive.
TheVictorian woman in Belmont does not match with any registered bone marrow donor in the world so is now pleading for the public to come forward to be blood tested for a possible match.
"I don't know how much time I have, I get too afraid to ask," Ms Bou Sejean told the Geelong Advertiser.

With her life in the balance, Ms Bou Sejean's brother Matt a week ago set up the Facebook page How You Can Help Cure Pamela.

Mr Bou Sejean who, like the rest of the family, does not match with his sister said "the cure for Pamela is in the body of hundreds of people out there."
