A Lifesaving and Life-Changing Bone Marrow Transplant for Kenzie at Samitivej Hospital
At only 9 months old, Muhammad Kenzie Farras Hazim (Kenzie) was diagnosed with the genetic blood disorder known as Thalassemia. This condition results in the body producing either abnormal strains or inadequate amounts of hemoglobin. With Kenzie’s father unable to access the necessary treatment options in his native Indonesia, the decision was made to bring young Kenzie to Samitivej Hospital in Thailand for treatment. Following a bone marrow transplant (BMT) from his younger brother, Kenzie is slowly regaining his strength and is ready to start a new life!
Kenzie’s father, Andi Syayuti, kindly talked to us about his son’s successful treatment at Samitivej Hospital.
