Turkey : Appropriate stem cells found, but transplantation cannot be done because of corona

In the Borcka district, Ayşe and Osman Önder’s 6-year-old daughters, Cemre, were diagnosed with leukemia two months after birth. After the family started the treatments immediately, Cemre recovered by responding to the treatment.

THE TRANSLATION HAS BEEN SUSPENDED due to the outbreak

The family, who loved their little daughter as “Beat the disease”, was disappointed again with the recurrence of the disease. The family started treatment again, the doctors said that this time a marrow transplant is necessary to make it come to life. After finding a suitable marrow for the little Cemre waiting for her transplant to be healed, the family was delighted and this time stem cell transplant operations were suspended due to the new type of corona virus (Covid-19) epidemic.

“HOW MUCH FAST TRANSPLANTATION WILL BE SORRY LESS”

Father Osman Önder said in a statement, “My daughter’s treatments have been continuing at certain intervals for two years, but her transplant is required for her recovery. A suitable donor has been found, stem cell transplantation will take place. While all the tests and preparations were completed, stem cell transplantation was put on hold due to the corona virus. For this reason, we need everyone’s help. I would like help from our President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and our Minister of Health Fahrettin Koca. It causes pain every day. We demand that the transfers be done as soon as possible. ” (IHA)
