Kathryn is looking forward to Christmas this year after lots of tests last year
A teenager from West Lancashire has spoken out about how she knew something was wrong when she struggled to keep her eyes open on the train home from college.
On September 19, Kathryn collapsed in her bedroom after getting out of the shower. Kathryn told the Liverpool Echo: "My family heard a big thud from upstairs and my brother [Matthew] was the one who found me. My mum said I was as white as a ghost and I was out cold for two minutes. Kathryn, now 18, said: "When he rang back [the doctor] he said 'it's what we were thought, there will be a bed for you at The Christie tomorrow'. It was absolutely horrible, I was anxious, shocked and confused all times by 1000.
Now eight months after her transplant, Kathryn is in a continued remission but still has regular appointments at The Christie for check-ups and close observation. She is slowly improving after her transplant but still struggles with the lasting side effects of treatment.
