Welcome to Dianna's webpage.

It has been provided to keep friends and family updated on her life with Fanconi anemia (FA).

Dianna was diagnosed with FA in April 1998.

FA causes aplastic anemia (bone marrow failure), as well as many different types of cancers.

She had a few of the obvious signs of FA: missing both thumbs, deaf in her right ear, very small for her age, and had corrective surgery at birth on her intestines.

Dianna had a sibling donor bone marrow transplant at Medical City Dallas, TX.


Transplant date: October 1, 2008

Dianna went to heaven September 1, 2009

It has been a LONG time for an update on Dianna!

This year has not been good for Dianna's platelet counts...

Dianna's Labs (April 29, 2008)-
white blood count: 5.3, red blood count: 2.71, HGB: 9.3, platelets: 43

We have started the paperwork process for bone marrow transplant with the insurance & hospital. :-(
The doctors said it could take a month or two for this process to be completed.

They are looking at transplant for Dianna around September or October.

We are now to see her doctor once a month for blood work.

I will update when I know more...
