Only just seen this misdee. Sorry to hear that the transplant wasn't possible last night and i truely hope that another one is available soon. Thinking of you and Peter and your family.x

I will keep my fingers crossed for you both honey xx

As I said to you on msn, my sister was called and the donor wasnt suitable (that was the first time) then the second transplant became available quite quickly. If they are a common blood type, average height it usually doesnt take that long for another donor to become available, and he is classed as emergency

Oh misdee

Still, it's reassuring to know that he seems to be so high up on the list - I hope his next opportunity will come very soon.

Thinking of you.
