Xinhua News Agency, Nanchang, July 22 (reported by Shen Yang) - A representative of the Hong Kong Bone Marrow Bank arrived in Beijing on the 21st to receive a donation of hematopoietic stem cells from Wu Falan, an individual mother from Xinyu City, Jiangxi Province. The representative then flew back to Hong Kong to save the life of a Hong Kong leukemia patient in urgent need of treatment.
On the morning of the 22nd, Wu Falan told reporters via telephone that her donation of hematopoietic stem cells was aimed at saving a life and setting an example for her 7-year-old daughter.
"Last year, when I took my daughter out on the street, I saw a blood collection vehicle from the hospital. I wanted to set an example for my daughter, so it was the first time in my life that I donated blood and left a blood sample, joining the Chinese Hematopoietic Stem Cell Donor Data Bank," said Wu Falan, who is 29 years old.
It was reported that on March 16 this year, after high-resolution testing, Wu Falan's match with a Hong Kong leukemia patient was successful. Wu Falan mentioned that initially her family opposed the idea, fearing it would affect her health. Later, she looked up information online and learned that donating hematopoietic stem cells does not harm the body, and gradually her family changed their attitude.
Huang Xiaohong, a staff member of the Xinyu Red Cross Society who accompanied Wu Falan to Beijing for the donation of hematopoietic liver cells, said that on July 16, Wu Falan checked into a hospital in Beijing. On the 20th, Wu Falan successfully completed the donation of hematopoietic stem cells, with the entire collection process taking 5 hours.
Wu Falan expressed that although she doesn't know exactly who the recipient is, she feels very comforted knowing that her actions might help sustain someone's life.
According to the Jiangxi Red Cross Society, Wu Falan is the 22nd donor of hematopoietic stem cells in Jiangxi Province, and also the first person from Jiangxi to donate hematopoietic stem cells to a Hong Kong leukemia patient.
