    Updated - Urgent Appeal - Like2Like.com : Sarah

    I have added a new post for those of you have read this...

    Those of you who have got to know me on this site will know that my beautiful daughter-in-law, Sarah, has Leukaemia.

    She got sick 2 years ago (on my son's birthday) very suddenly and had 4 rounds of chemo and went into remission. They got married last year, an incredibly poignant day for everyone who knows them.... they are such a special, wonderful couple.

    Sadly, 3 days before Christmas she relapsed. She has now completed another round of chemo and will start yet another next week.

    In order for her to survive she will need a bone marrow transplant. Her family have been tested but no-one matched - a donor would have to come from a very similar genetic background. She is mixed race and there is a dreadful shortage of potential donors on the Bone Marrow Donor registers from black, mixed-race and other ethnic groups.

    We have started a campaign (website: www.like2like.com) to get people to register and would be grateful to anyone who could help in any way, by registering themselves (there are many other people waiting for donors) or by passing the information on.

    Please have a look at the website, where you will see pictures of Sarah and my son, Mark and the whole story in his words....

    By the way - any comments posted on the site (on the right hand side 'your comments') will be read by Sarah and will mean so much to her!

    Thankyou so much for reading.

    Hi Fee, i'm thinking of you in this worrying time. I hope lots of people visit the website. There are so many wonderful websites out there & I think one of the TV channels should make people more aware of the help that is needed & publicise across the globe. A friend of mine has just had a kidney transplant. He was born with only half a working kidney & has been on dialysis all his life. His mum was a perfect match, but unfortunately, his body rejected the kidney & it had to be removed. All his family & friends have rallied round and had the tests to see if anyone is compatible, but as yet, a donor hasn't been found. I think websites are a great way of getting the word across. So many people are willing to help & I hope Sarah finds a donor soon. There are many NMP members Fee, all over the world, i'm keeping my fingers crossed for Sarah.

    Take care, Les, xx
