    I'm on my first year after stemcell transplant and feeling better. Two years from first diagnose AML, but I wish the best to all those who are going through this. It's not easy, but you know what they say. Keep it positive and keep it going strong. ❤🙏

    To anyone out there who’s going through this (or something similar) be brave, stay positive Never lose your sense of humour and plan something to do with your loved ones next year… it REALLY helps My support network was constantly chatting with my family and mates about life the universe and anything else that came up They were great and without them recovery would have been much harder Well done Paul Well done Paul’s family and friends It’s a long road but You’re getting there 😬

    I have a SCT in two days. Due to my Hodgkins Lymphoma not going away after 6 months ABVD + 10 sessions of radiation. Now I'm on GDP awaiting the transplant. They're harvesting my own cells and reinfusing them 2 weeks later. So I'll be my own donor. That means there's a chance that some cancer cells make it back into my body during reinfusion and that scares me. The whole thing scares me really. I'm more afraid now than I was to receive chemo. It's a daunting procedure but here's hoping it gets rid of my cancer for good. Wish me luck.

    Today i got a letter to say im a match for someone needing a transplant. I registered 3 years ago and thought no more of it until today. I called DKMS who im registered with (and Anthony nolan) and they said im the best match so far and if i would be willing to do a blood test to see if im 100% compatible. I said yes. So tomorrow i do bloods. In 3 months we will have the results if im the one to save this person.....surreal feeling to know i potentially could save this unknown person

    Good luck! I had a transplant in 2014. Then my MDS came back in 2019. So I had my second. It's been a year an 6 months .everything is good. I had a problem with my lungs .pneumonia. I'm on oxygen now. Hopefully I can kick this ass too. Good luck in the future.

    My husband was diagnosed in May with MDS and high risk to AML. He had a transplant in October and relapsed few weeks ago with AML. NHS won’t pay for another transplant since he relapsed within 6 weeks. Just very hard for us at the moment. We’re looking into going to Kings college hospital for his treatment to fix it.

    I've been registered as a potential donor for a few years now but never got a call so far. It's actually comforting to think my "genetic twin" as we call them here is healthy :) Although I must say this story was very uplifting and motivating. Great job.
