  • Marcel and Rob’s Skydive for The AAT & Mind

    In August 2016 my wife Laura was diagnosed with Aplastic Aneamia. She underwent ATG treatment which was unsuccessful. In June 2018 she had a donor stem cell transplant and is thankfully regaining her health. The AAT was very supportive during her treatment and provide much needed funds for research. Thank you!

  • What it's really like to get pregnant after Aplastic Anaemia

Could I go through with a pregnancy and risk the very real possibility of relapse? In 2015 we bit the bullet, tried and fell pregnant! I was over the moon, but I was terrified.
