A family’s hope

After Kiri's diagnosis, his family discovered that none of them were a match. Now, they're actively searching for an unrelated donor and regularly participate in donor recruitment events to raise awareness. Through these efforts, they encourage others to join the registry, highlighting its potential to profoundly impact a child's life.

Keeping hope strong

Kiri’s treatment includes ongoing monitoring and regular check-ins with his care team as they work to find a blood stem cell donor. A recent MRI revealed that the ALD is progressing, increasing the urgency of finding a matching donor. Though a family match wasn’t found, his family remains hopeful that his life-saving match is out there—and it could be you.
