Sixteen-year old Laith Abu Areesh suffers from Fanconi’s Anemia, a condition that affects the bone marrow’s ability to make healthy blood cells. The condition arises from a genetic defect in Laith’s DNA and he has been ill since it was diagnosed in early childhood. Doctors said his best chance of recovery was a bone marrow transplant but extensive searches over the years had failed to find a donor match.
I live in Geneva with my wife and our newly born daughter who was born in December 2015. I work for one of the major trading companies.
Graft-versus-Host Disease (GvHD) is a common and serious complication that can follow a stem cell transplant from an unrelated donor (non family member). GvHD is divided into acute and chronic forms according to the clinical course and time of the diagnosis. It is a life-threatening condition, which contributes greatly to early mortality after stem cell transplants. Survivors may suffer organ damage and have impaired quality of life.
