An Update On Tammy Following Her Stem Cell Transplant

Thursday, February 26th, 2015

In January, Tammy McLash made the trip to Calgary for her stem cell transplant, which she received on January 21, 2015. Now just over a month later, Tammy’s health is improving every day and it is hoped she will be able to go home in two months.

Watch video here:

Tammy’s ordeal started just over six months ago. The Edmonton mother of twins was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia in August 2014. She completed four rounds of chemotherapy while waiting for a matching stem cell donor to be found. As family members were not a suitable match, information was registered on the “Canadian Blood Service’s OneMatch Program” database and a worldwide search was on. A suitable match was found in December 2014, and its wonderful news to know the stem cell transplant is done and Tammy’s health is now improving.
