Daniel Bakhchevnikov, a young 7 year old boy in Sauk City, Wisconsin, attended school for the first time in over 1 year recently.  The miracle that Daniel is even alive is due to the wonders of Adult Stem Cell research in the form of a bone marrow transplant to treat his Aplastic Anemia.

Diagnosed with Aplastic Anemia at the age of 5, Daniel had spent the last two years mostly in a hospital.  In aplastic anemia, the body does not  produce enough new blood cells- red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets.  The patient is always tired and at high risk of infections and uncontrollable bleeding.

Or another definition for Aplastic Anemia  as Daniel's mother, Tatiana described it -

"It was no life," she said. "It was hell."

The doctors tried antibody treatments first.  They didn't help.  After going in and out of hospitals for more than one year, the doctors decided the only way to help Daniel was through a bone marrow transplant.

After chemotherapy treatments to kill as much of his old bone marrow as possible, Daniel received a bone marrow transplant from an anonymous European donor on Aug. 8, 2008.

The day his blood cell counts got high enough he could go home, Tatiana did a handstand in the hospital hallway.

I wish Daniel and his family the best in the future.  Daniel is yet another in the long list of bone marrow (stem cell) transplant recipients to become healthy again.  It makes one want to register to become a bone marrow donor and try to help out.

Repair Stem Cells are at it again!  Today, I present Garrett Kaulbars, an 8 year old from Naples, Florida who was suffering from aplastic anemia, a rare blood disorder.  Garrett needed a bone marrow transplant to save his life.  Luckily for Garrett-  he has a twin brother, Tanner,  who provided a perfect match of stem cells to implant into Garrett to help save him.  Now, Garrett is counting the days until he is allowed to leave the house so he can eat at Red Lobster, his favorite restaurant.  I suggest the garlic grilled jumbo shrimp Garrett.  I am happy you will be able to enjoy it  :):

Now, Garrett Kaulbars is counting the days until he can go to Red Lobster for seafood.

Not before Sept. 4, but afterward.

That's when the 8-year-old will hit the 100-day mark since his bone marrow transplant and he will be considered out of the woods.

His immune system should be strong enough by then that he will be able to leave the confines of his North Naples home.
