ONE ALTERNATIVE FOR SOMEONE WITH A CHILD WITH SAA, AND ARE YOUNG ENOUGH TO HAVE and WANT ANOTHER CHILD and DON'T CARE ABOUT THE MORAL ASPECT BUT ONLY CARE ABOUT AN ALTERNATIVE TO SAVE THEIR CHILD, THEN, MAKE A SIBLING DONOR FOR YOUR CHILD. 1.. You would apply for a PGD = PREIMPLANTATION GENETIC ANALYSIS, LOOKING FOR GENETIC DISORDERS. Eg..SAA, plus some others of course. 2..You would do an IVF CYCLE = INVITRO FERTILIZATION !!! YOU MAY PRODUCE 10 / 30 EGGS THAT CAN BE HARVESTED TO BE USED FOR THE HLA MATCH. 3..WHEN THE TIME IS RIGHT THEY WOULD RETRIEVE THE EGGS and SPERM, TO BE FERTILISED OUTSIDE THE WOMB. 4.. APPROXIMATELY 4 or 5 DAYS LATER IF ALL WENT WELL THEY REPLACE 1 or 2 EMBRYOS THAT HLA MATCH WITH YOUR CHILD. NO, NO, NO THEY DON'T GENETICLY CHANGE ENEYTHING THEY JUST SEE IF THERE IS A MATCH THE ODD'S ARE 4 to 1, GOOD CHANCE OF FINDING 1 or MORE, BETTER THAN LOOKING FOR A STRANGER FOR A BMT AND THE HIGHER RISK GVHD, ALSO MUCH CHEAPER, NOT THAT MONEY MATTERS IN THIS CASE, MAY BE. 5.. PROVIDED YOUR NEW BABY IS HEALTHY AND THE HLA MATCH IS CORRECT AND, AND, AND YOUR CHILD WITH SAA HAS SURVIVED THE 10 to 12 MONTH'S THIS MIGHT TAKE, YOU CAN THEN USE THE CORD BLOOD FOR THE TRANSPLANT. ALSO THERE IS LESS CHANCE OF GVHD FROM A SIBLING. 6..IMPORTANT.. THE MORE TRANSFUSIONS YOU HAVE THE GREATER THE RISK OF GVHD IF YOU DO A BMT or STEMCELL or SOMETHING LATER. IVF is NOT such A complex procedure eggs and sperm have to be harvested and then fertilized outside of the womb and then *sorted out* as to which has the specific characteristics you're looking for. Once those are chosen, then the fertilized egg/s/embryos are implanted and hopefully take hold. Not all the implanted embryos survive. Then there's THAT MORAL ISSUE of the *other* excess fertilized eggs or embryos that are frozen FOR YOU TO USE AT A LATER STAGE or DONATE THEM TO SOMEONE ELSE or FOR THE LAB TO DISPOSE OF THEM FOR YOU, THIS MAY BE ACCEPTABLE FOR SOME PEOPLE , BUT NOT FOR SOME OTHERS, IF YOU CHOOSE THIS OPTION, YOU MUST BE AWARE THEY ALL HAVE THE ELEMENT OF RISK. THE WAY I PERSONALLY WOULD GO ABOUT ALL OF THIS IS. 1.. HAVE THE BLOOD TRANSFUSIONS AND HOLD OFF ON THE ATG AS LONG AS POSSIBLE ??????. 2.. ASK SEVERAL 10 DOCTORS ABOUT THE VARIOUS ALTERNATIVES AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.TIME TIK,TIK,TIK. 3.. CONTACT Reproductive Genetics Institute Chicago : www.reproductivegenetics.com Dr Tur Kaspa phone 1-773-4724900, ALSO ASK, ASK ALL THE QUESTIONS NECESSARY SO YOU UNDERSTAND A to Z NO SURPRISES.THIS WILL KEEP YOU BUSY FOR 1or 4 WEEKS WHILE YOUR TRYING TO MAKE UP YOUR MIND. 4.. LEARN AS MUCH ABOUT CLEANLINESS AS YOU CAN. THOSE BUGS ARE OUT THERE. 5.. SEARCH FOR THINGS LIKE, COLLOIDAL SILVER, H202, NAC, TRYSTEM, IRRADIATED BLOOD PRODUCTS for TRANSFUSIONS, VITAMINS + SUPPLEMENTS, COFFEE ENEMA, talk to BRUCE about that one, ORDER BRUCE'S BOOK $9.95. IT'S WORTH 10 X MORE I THINK, ESPECIALLY IF IT EVEN HELP'S JUST A LITTLE ???. BUT, BUT, BUT, I , I , I WOULD STILL DO THE IVF , PGD , HLA , MATCH IN PARALLEL WITH THE OTHER OPTIONS REGARDLESS, THIS OPTION WON'T HARM THE CHILD WITH SAA, BUT AT LEAST THERE IS SOME INSURANCE FOR YOU DOWN THE TRACK. THIS OPTION MAY ONLY SUIT THE PEOPLE WHO FIT THE RIGHT CRITERIA AND HAVE NO MORAL'S ABOUT SAVING THEIR CHILD, ESSPESELY THEIR ONE AND ONLY LITTLE ANGEL. DON'T FORGET WHAT EVER OPTION YOU TAKE FOR YOUR CHILD THEY ALL HAVE RISKS AND YOU CAN'T TURN THE HANDS OF TIME BACK, THERE ARE NOT MANY MISTAKE'S THAT WORK WITH SAA ONLY CONCLUSIONS, AND THEN IS TO LATE. BEST OF LUCK WHAT EVER YOU CHOOSE, AND I AM VERY SORRY FOR ALL OF YOU WITH APLASTIC ANEMIA AND I WISH ALL OF YOU COULD BEAT THIS DREADFUL SICKNESS. THE ABOVE IS NOT FROM A STORYBOOK BUT MY OWN EXPERIENCE IF I HAD KNOWN OF THE ABOVE IN THE BEGINNING MAYBE JUST MAYBE WE WOULD NOT HAVE RUN OUT OF TIME, TIME AND THE INFECTIONS BEAT US. OUR 7 YEAR OLD CHILD SURVIVED 1 Yr and 6 Mth's AND WE STILL HAVE THE MATCHING HLA DONOR ON THE WAY, TO BE BORN IN MAY, A BIT LATE. OUR INTENTION IS, STILL TO SAVE THE CORD BLOOD ???. I HOPE LIGHTING DOESN'T STRIKE IN THE SAME PLACE TWICE. OTTO.
