Suddenly, one fine day, he realized that he was tiring quite often while playing. Also, he is becoming more susceptible to frequent infections. Initially, the family thought it to be a routine infection and did home-based traditional treatments. However, the events of fatigue, infection kept on increasing, and now it also has nose bleeds and urine bleeds sometimes. When these symptoms didn’t stop for a few days, his father decided to show him to a doctor in Addis Ababa, the capital city of Ethiopia, home to some of the best hospitals in Ethiopia.

They showed up at one of the best hospitals in Ethiopia and consulted a physician. The doctor ordered some tests to be performed. While Mukhtar and his father waited for results, his symptoms kept on increasing. The doctor started preliminary treatment of the infection in order to control it. However, fate was not on the side of Mukhtar, results of the tests were not encouraging, and he was diagnosed with aplastísk blóðleysi, a rare disorder that originates from bone marrow and completely destroys it, leaving the patient prone to very frequent infections.
News of aplastic anemia came as a big shock to the entire family. The doctor also advised them to immediately go for the only curative treatment, which is a bone marrow stem cell transplant.
Family and friends of Mukhtar started inquiring about bone marrow stem cell treatment in Ethiopia, and to their shock, they learned that there is no hospital or specialist available in Ethiopia for bone marrow transplants. There are two kinds of BMT: autologous BMT and allogenic BMT. In autologous BMT, self-bone marrow is used, while in allogenic BMT, a donor bone marrow is used for the transplant. Mukhtar was clearly a case of an allogenic marrow transplant.
