  • Summary

  • Magical Match, a podcast all about real people with real stories around the important topic of stem cell donation and transplants. In each episode, I’ll be chatting with donors, recipients, those in supportive roles; and people who have been affected by either a personal experience or through another’s inspirational story. I hope that by opening the conversation around stem cell donation, we can inspire more people to sign up to the stem cell register, offering more hope to those in need.

  • S2. Ep8. Lisa Gosnay - Part One - Aplastic Anaemia
    Mar 23 2024

    In this episode, we hear from Lisa Gosnay, who at 29, was diagnosed with Aplastic Anaemia.

    Lisa is an amazing person and has an extraordinary story. In this two-parter, we hear about her initial diagnosis and treatment. We learn about her career struggles, having been very career-focused and her determination to keep going forward, despite the impact on her health; and her ultimate acceptance of her condition.

    On this podcast, we usually focus on blood cancer, but this is about a blood disorder that can have a profound impact on an individual and as Lisa termed it, Aplastic Anaemia is known as the ugly sister to Leukaemia.

    There is a stem cell transplant in this story, but we will hear more about that part of Lisa's experience in Part Two, coming soon.

    As always, it is a huge privilege to be able to speak with such inspirational guests on this podcast and I really do hope that this conversation inspires you, too.
