Finding out information about transplant can be empowering and help build your confidence to tackle the situation head on.
We will help you understand what stem cells do and why they are so important. There is information on how we search our registry for stem cell donors and possible alternatives if a donor can’t be found straightaway. We also look at options in the rare circumstance that funding for a transplant isn’t initially available.
We will provide answers to the following questions:
- What is a stem cell transplant?
- What are the different types of transplant?
- How do we find a stem cell donor?
- What is an Individual Funding Request (IFR)?
- Will Brexit affect my stem cell transplant?
- Coronavirus (COVID-19) and your stem cell transplant
It’s almost impossible to try to understand everything all at once. Whether it's pre-transplant, during the transplant or six months post-transplant, we focus on just that time and then hopefully it’s not so daunting.
