URGENT APPEAL ⁣
⁣
Alex is nearly 24 yrs old and is from Essex.⁣
⁣
Alex was 18 yrs old when he was diagnosed with a blood cancer called Classical Hodgkin’s Lymphoma 4B in April 2016. He has relapsed 6 times now. Alex has had endless chemo and 2 stem cell transplants which failed to cure him. ⁣
⁣
In January 2020 he was given a trial drug that nearly killed him in February 2020.⁣
⁣
The first stem cell transplant in November 2016 using his own cells failed as he relapsed in January 2017. ⁣
⁣
The consultants contacted the register for donors but found no match for Alex. I (Mum) was asked if I would be a donor for my son as I was a 50% match. Alex received my cells in June 2017 and we thought this might do the trick. He had top ups of my cells DLI when he was well enough.⁣
⁣
So with the news that after a year of remission from June 2020 to August 2021 his Hodgkin’s lymphoma has returned and his consultant said he is incurable. ⁣
⁣
There is a glimmer of hope and one more chance with an unrelated stem cell donor which is why we are asking for help.⁣
⁣
Could you be his donor? Could you save his life?⁣

⁣For those of you in London, on the 10th December between 6.30-8.30pm we are holding are stem cell donor recruitment drive. ⁣
