Four-year-old Erin was first diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia (ALL)in Autumn 2019.
Erin loves watching cartoons, her favourite being Bluey, Paddington Bear & Disney Princesses. She also enjoys playing in the park with her friends and spending time with her older Sister Neave and puppy Angus.
In October 2019, Erin was unable to shake off a bad cough and cold despite taking antibiotics. She was also fatigued and experiencing night sweats.
She was referred to her local hospital by the GP, and within hours was transferred to Edinburgh Hospital for Sick Children, where her diagnosis was confirmed.
Erin went through several weeks of intensive chemotherapy & steroid treatment, having several lumbar punctures and blood & platelet transfusions. She various treatments for over 2yrs.
In May 2022 Erin rang the end of treatment bell and was doing well.
At the start of July. she started to complain of head & back aches as well as vomiting. On 21 of August, the family were advised that Erin had relapsed. She’s had four weeks of chemotherapy and is currently undergoing antibody therapy in preparation for a bone marrow transplant.
No-one in the family is a suitable match for Erin, so the family are looking to a stranger to donate their stem cells to Erin.
