A family has reissued a desperate plea to save the life of a seriously ill girl who has already undergone 100 blood transfusions – including two while still in the WOMB.
Disney-mad Chloe Gray, seven, has incredibly rare disorder – Diamond Blackfan Anaemia – which only affects approximately 700 people in the world.
Her disorder means the bone marrow does not produce red blood cells properly and the only answer is a stem cell transplant by an anonymous donor.
Her family initially launched the #aheroforchloe campaign last year which has already been endorsed by celebrities Sir Tim Rice and Lorraine Kelly.
But efforts are now being doubled in a bid to find a suitable match because time is running out.
Before she was born, Chloe had to battle for survival after a 20-week scan revealed she had fluid in all her vital organs.
Tests showed little Chloe was severely anaemic and at 22 weeks she underwent her first blood transfusion while still in the womb.
