Hello, Please Take a moment to read this...
This is beautiful little Eva Belle.
On the 20th November 2006, just days after her 3rd birthday, Eva was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia. As time with this condition is critical, chemotherapy was started within days and she has yet to return home to her family. During the course of treatment it was discovered that Eva has a rare chromosome - PHILADELPHIA - there are only 8-9 cases in children per year in the UK.
What this means for Eva is that the only way she can get better is to have a full bone marrow transplant. Her big sister Mia is the most likely bone marrow match but this chance is still only 1 in 4. Mia has been tested but we are awaiting the results.
What we are asking from you is to visit the Anthony Nolan Trust http://www.anthonynolan.org.uk/
and register as a bone marrow donor. All this will take is a single blood test and if somebody is lucky enough for you to have been a match for them, to donate your bone marrow is as simple as giving blood. If you have any questions or concerns contact your GP and they will be happy to help.
Eva needs to find her match NOW. She needs her transplant on week 22 of her treatment. Christmas Day will mark the start of week 4.
You may not be a match for Eva, but you could be a match for somebody. Please act now - you could save a life.
Thank you for taking the time to read this. Please send this to all in your email address book. If people don't have email, print it off and give it to them and encourage them to do the same. Raise awareness - it could affect you or your child one day.
