A forty-three-year old man from Sussex, England, whose life was saved by cord blood donated by a mother and newborn baby he will never know said he will always feel grateful to them.
Philip Meehan was 40 when he discovered he had leukemia. He found out after a week’s walking holiday in the Lake District in 2007; he told the press that as a self-employed person the week’s break was a rare chance to recharge batteries after a hectic year working at home and abroad.
During his holiday Meehan felt tired and out of breath, something he put down to “being a bit fat, forty and far from fit”; but a week after he got back home he still felt exhausted so he went to his GP. Continue training!
