A new paediatric bone marrow transplant service has treated its first patient.
Father Dan Grocott said his son needed to find a bone marrow donor match because "it was find a match or die". The teenager said it was "really important" to be around familiar people while undergoing the procedure.Patients in East Anglia have historically been referred to Bristol, London, or further afield for such treatment, according to CUH.
"I'd reached a point where we had to find a match - there wasn't an alternative. It was find a match or die," said Dan Grocott, Will's dad.
