It first started when the author 's baby brother fell sick. The author 's family thought it was a ear infection.They brought the baby to see a doctor. The doctor said it was a ear infection.
A few days later the baby was still holding his ears, so they went to see another doctor. He did not know what it was . A couple of days later the doctor found that the baby contracted bone marrow cancer. The author 's parents rushed to the hospital in an ambulace. They stayed in the hospital for several weeks. The author 's father went home to take care of the author and his sisters. They still try to visit the baby as much as possible. The doctor tried a round of chemotherapy. It helped but it made the author 's brother lose some hair. The baby needed a bone marrow transplant.
The doctor tested the family and found that the author and one of his sisters have the same matching bone marrow as the baby brother. The author 's mum chose him because he was the oldest. The next day,the author went for the transplant. The operation was successful.The family must be careful with the baby.Two years later the baby is strong and very energetic.
