Keiton, aged 7, was first diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia but in the last month of treatment the disease turned into Acute Myeloidblastic Leukaemia and now he must have a Bone marrow Transplant.
Paris, Keiton’s mum is an incredible woman and single mother, who has been a tower of strength for him and now really needs your help to make her dream come true and watch her much loved son grow up and have a fulfilling life.
Time is running out for Keiton and the only way to save his life is to go give blood directly to one of the clinics.
We are looking for mixed race individuals to become a Bone Marrow donor for Keiton, as his tissue type is very unusual.
The potential donor must, like Keiton, have one black and one white parent and be aged between 18 and 40.
If this sounds like you, and you would like to help Keiton, Call the National Blood Service to find your nearest clinic:
0845 7711711
Our next Drive/Clinics, working with the Anthony Nolan Trust, will be held on:
Sunday 1st October, Time 11am till 3pm at the St. Edmunds Catholic Church, 115 Hertford Road, London N9 7EN
Sunday 8th October, Time 1pm till 4pm at the Christian Life Fellowship, The Borough Hall, Royal Hill, London SE10 8RE
Wed 11th October, Time 4pm till 7.30pm at Leopold Primary School, Hawkeshead Road, Harlesden, London NW10 9UR
Thu 12th October, Time 5pm till 8pm at Katherine Road Community Centre, 254 Katherine Road, Forest Gate E7 8PN
Go down and give some blood, PLEASE!
One of the procedures for removing the bone marrow stem cells is very simple and near on painless. A small needle will be placed in each arm and the blood is removed from you left arm and is passed through a machine which removes the Stem Cells and the blood is then passed back into your right arm. It will only take 2/3 hours out of your day to save Keiton’s life!
To find out more information & how to become a donor, please go to the Anthony Nolan Trust, National Blood Service and the African Caribbean Leukaemia Trust
