My son Jia developed the Kell group antibody last year and now has a problem getting suitable donour. I heard from the hospital that there are only a couple of donours with the same blood type and such antibody in Perth. He is recommended not to do strenuous sports so as not to incur more blood transfusion than what is already needed. Just wondering what everyone's view on this matter.

Hi Aus
Just wondering whether you found out whether this (Kell group antibody) is available at any other Australia's blood banks maybe Adelaide. I know this is a long way Perth maybe it would offer you some comfort to know there were more than a couple of donours available. Surely we are able to ship blood between centre is needed.
Regards
Catherine (Melbourne)
