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

Day + 280

This week Dianna is doing OK,
but can not get rid of a fever.
The fever stays around 99.5 to 102.
The doctors have run many tests-
but so far have not found what is causing the fever.
She is on several different antibiotics (???)
I am praying that the doctors find what is causing the fever &/or
the antibiotics work to get rid of the cause for the fever.

Glad she's doing okay, but I bet that fever must be stressful! I hope and pray that the fever goes away soon.

Hang in there guys! Hopefully one day soon Dianna can leave her room!

Big hugs,
