Dear folks,

The good news is that the lady suffering from breast cancer is well
now. The young boy is still battling very bravely with the recurrence
of rhabdomayosarcoma.

There is a 7 year old child who needs a bone marrow transplant. The
sister's and mother's HLA does not match. Any other possibilities? I
need more information on this.

God Bless you all,
Nirupma

Hello Nirupma
Thank you for the update.
As you can see here, http://www.bmtinfonet.org/newsletters/index.html
there's not much news on bone marrow transplant.

I think the best place to ask for advice for that is on the private ACOR
mail list for BMT
There's over 1,400 subscribers.
There may be people there from the 7 year old's country, who might have
suggestions.
Give it a try by subscibing ("join") and asking your questions there.
If there's any recent news, they will surely know.

God bless you for your ongoing support of so many people.
