8 year old Dylan was diagnosed with a blood disorder called Aplastic Anaemia in July 2024.

Claire, Dylan's mum says, "Dylan now requires intensive treatment to try and kickstart his body into producing healthy blood again. Dylan has had multiple transfusions of blood and platelets over the course of the past few months which have saved him. He also urgently requires a stem cell transplant, however there isn't a 10/10 match on the stem cell register.

Unfortunately Dylan's diagnosis of Aplastic Anaemia is classed as 'very severe' and he has been admitted to hospital numerous times since July with recurrent infections and need for medical support. Dylan has missed out on enjoying his summer holidays and wasn't able to start back to school in September and enjoy all the things an 8 year old should with his friends. 

We are patiently waiting on a match for Dylan to allow him to become the fun, happy, energetic & hilarious little boy he was before his diagnosis.

By joining the stem cell register, not only could you help our beautiful son but you will be helping so many other young children, teenagers and adults all depending upon these donations to continue living their wonderful lives.
