St. Jude Children's Research Hospital - ALSAC的动态

These days, St. Jude patient Kimberlin spends her time enjoying life with her husband of 19 years, her children, and grandchildren. But in 1983, when she was 8 years old, something remarkable happened. A bone marrow transplant, which doctors at St. Jude had intended to treat her acute myeloid leukemia, cured not only the cancer, but her sickle cell disease as well. Since then, Kimberlin has been known as the first person in the world to be cured of sickle cell disease, the most common inherited blood disorder in the United States, affecting about 100,000 Americans and millions more worldwide. ?? https://bit.ly/4gDhwWe

That's amazing! Love hearing that, Kimberlin! ?? We might have crossed paths, because I was treated there starting in 1983 also! Congrats, Survivor!
