In late November 2003 the four Hartley sons (Joshua - 12, Nathan - 10, Daniel - 8 and Luke - 4) were diagnosed with an extremely rare genetic defect known as X-Linked Lymphoproliferative Syndrome (XLP) or Duncan’s Syndrome. Doctors have told the family that the only cure for their four sons is a bone marrow transplant.
Unusually, the boys’ mother, Allison, has been found to be a potential donor for Joshua. So far the worldwide search amongst nine million donors for the other three sons has proved unsuccessful.

David Hartley is appealing for more young men to join The Anthony Nolan Trust’s bone marrow register.
His four sons all urgently need a bone marrow transplant.
David’s family and friends are launching a campaign to raise awareness of the urgent need for more bone marrow donors to register with The Anthony Nolan Trust, in particular young men*.

Donors must be aged between 18-40 years old and in good health, for more information call The Anthony Nolan Trust's hotline on 0901 88 22 234 (25p per minute) or log on to www.anthonynolan.org.uk.
