Thursday, November 17th, 2011

That explains why most disease carriers can live over 50 years compared to 10-20 years of expected length of survival. Bone marrow transplant can further extend life expectancy of patients, though. Unfortunately, the treatment is only available to patients with compatible bone marrow donor. Otherwise the medical procedure shall not push through.

I saw a picture of a person who looked like my grandfather, when I asked him about some information it turned it we were related and then we merged our trees together.
