The bone marrow transplant 12 May 2010

So i had to have a bone marrow transplant, both my sisters ended up being matches but it was decided that my younger-eldest sister would be my doner she had to go through an operation to have some of her bone marrow removed- this was then mixed with blood and given to me through a drip- prior to this i had to have a week of intensive chemo to suppress my immune system, this made loose my hair which to be honest i really didn’t care about at all. I just wanted to get back to normal. I was in hospital for 9 weeks, and i couldn’t wait to get home- i had such great big plans for the summer holidays however they were soon to dissipate into nothing as i really wasn’t well enough to do anything.
