My name is Lauren Hards and i am 20 years old. I am currently living in Newmarket which is in Suffolk. I have a rare type of leukaemia called CHRONIC MYELOID LEUKAEMIA. I was diagnosed with the disease in September 2008, however I recently found out that I am going to have a Bone Marrow Transplant at the end of 2010. I am doing this blog so people can follow me through the transplant and to try and get more people to donate bone marrow.

Off to a bonfire soon...
I am very excited to see the 2,000 pound firework display in about half hour. I am even more excited though about Monday. I will find out on Monday whether the donor has passed the medical so i can't wait for Monday to come around as i am hoping it is good news. I have just being adjusting to not been in hospital anymore. I miss not having to cook lol. If i recieve good news on Monday then my radiotherapy test dose will go ahead on tuesday night as they cannot give a test dose if the transplant is post poned as it is very dangerous. It is less than 2 weeks til transplant now so i need to get a wiggle on with moving my stuff in to my new home. I have ordered all the furniture and it will all arrive next week apart from the bed which will take over a month. This is rather annoying as it is the most important item really but at least i can kip on the sofa. I hope i get back from the bonfire in time for x factor as i look forward to it everyweek lol. I am feeling really excited about the transplant even though the treatments are going to be horrific. I am also s**t scared as i could die but i am focusing on the positives for once in my life lol. I am confident that i am going to kick the cancers butt! Gotta go now but will hopefully be typing good news on monday!!
