"In November 2009, I was diagnosed with a rare disease called MNGIE Syndrome (myoneurogastrointestinal encephalopathy syndrome). The only treatment is a bone marrow transplant, which I received in April 2010 in Vall d´Hebron Hospital in Barcelona.

I am an Asturian girl and I am immensely grateful to the José Carreras Foundation for allowing me and my mum to stay in a flat in Barcelona. This support has helped us so much during our time here".

Marta

"As Marta's mother, I am so grateful for finding a donor for my daughter in record time and without your support it wouldn't have been possible".
