Description

The woman on the left is Linda, Marc is on the right. He is in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), suffering from severe Graft-Versus-Host Disease (GVHD). This was a side-effect of an autologaus bone marrow transplant.

My brother passed away the following day. He was being treated for Hodgkin's Lymphoma (a bone marrow transplant was his only chance of surviving). He was 34 years old, and he leaves behind three children. (date: 2003-03-19)
