A compatible bone marrow donor for little Luis has been found

At the end of last year we published a special news letter telling about the difficult and grievous situation of family Kienzler and we asked you to participate in a typing campaign for Luis, the family’s child who was only a few months-old and suffered from leukaemia. After times of fearful waiting, the family has now gained new hope.

At the Easter weekend, the family received the relieving news that a bone marrow donor had been found for their son with the assistance of the foundation Aktion Knochenmarkspende Bayern. Compatibility of the essential features amounted to 90 percent.

Now, preparations are being made for the stem cell transplantation which is to be carried through at the end of April 2010. The humedica team would like to wish family Kienzler all the best, endurance and God’s blessings for the future.
