Story

Kai was just two years old when he was diagnosed with AML. Following four rounds of chemotherapy Kai was sadly not in remission and in August 2015 underwent a stem cell transplant from an unrelated matched donor. Kai spent further time recovering and was discharged home in December 2015. But sadly his journey was not over.

Kai's subtype of AML was extremely aggressive and in July 2016 he sadly relapsed. For a second time Kai underwent another 4 gruelling rounds of chemotherapy and total body irradiation. It was decided that again to give Kai the possible chance to survive another stem cell transplant would be needed. This time of a registry comprised of 28 million people not one single person was a suitable match for Kai. 

Kai's youngest brother born during his first round of treatment had his cord collected at birth in case of relapse and it was found he was a perfect match for his brother. In November 2016 Kai underwent his second transplant and was once again on the road to recovery.

Just a few days before Christmas 2016 doctors broke the news that the leukeamia had returned stronger than ever and there was nothing more that could be done.

Kai went home to spend time with all his loved ones and heartbreakingly lost his battle on 12th January 2017 surrounded by his closest family.
