I have her home for a while (+/- 2 weeks) ahead of the next round of Chemo. It's been very tough but she made it through round 1...The search for a donor is ongoing and to my amazement - British people cannot enrol to be donors in Belgium because the Belgium authorities say there is a risk of CJD (mad cow disease) from British donors.... yet the patient in this case is British and when they look for donors , they will extend the search via the international bone marrow registry to include British donors.... but the F@*king stupid cretins that are the burocrats that run the system in Belgium won't let us or our British friends get tested as possible donors.

I figure I owe an update for anyone interested. Mrs Gecko has been home for a few weeks whilst the search for a donor continued. A couple of weeks ago her professor at the hospital told us he had found the match he was looking for and the date for the transplant is now set for the 29th April. She has to go back into the hospital on the 22nd for more of that awful chemo therapy and radiation too this time but with the donor we at least have a fighting chance of beating this .
