Brighton mum of two Nikki Braterman, has been given new hope of a bone marrow transplant early next year thanks to a 43 year old male donor from Germany. Although not a perfect match, doctors at the Royal Marsden have advised that the transplant should go ahead with this particular donor because, Nikki’s blood anti-bodies do not react against his blood in the same way as it did with potential donors identifiedfor Nikke earlier in the year.
