This story of an Algerian child
Age 3.5 years
Underwent for successful bone marrow procedure and regained his life.
Story of 3.5 years old Algerian child, who underwent for successful bone marrow procedure and regained his quality of life.
When the child was 7 months old, then his parent knew he has thalassemia. Since then, they started transfusing blood every month until 3 years.
Over time, blood transfusion resulted in iron accumulation in the heart and liver, and due to this, parent suffered a lot during this period, mentally and physically.
Finally, they started searching “Best Treatment for thalassemia in India” at a low cost.
They reached out to us and shared all the medical reports, which we discussed with one of the best pediatric hematologists in Delhi/NCR, and informed them about procedure and cost.
They arrived to India, where we received them and dropped off at the hotel. Next day, doctor performed relevant tests, and carried out a half-match bone marrow transplant from mother as a donor.
The procedure went successful, and child fully healed from disease. White blood cell count started rising as well as platelet levels started to rise, and red blood cell production restarted. I wish him a happy and healthy life ahead.
Bone marrow transplant is a best option for thalassemia patients, giving them chance to lead a healthy life. This procedure gives permanent solution to children by saving them from constant need of blood transfusion.
