A girl kept alive for 10 years by monthly blood transfusions has had a life-saving stem cell transplant after finding her genetic twin.

Chloe Gray, a schoolgirl in Sunderland, was diagnosed with a rare blood disorder called Diamond Blackfan Anaemia while she was still in her mother's womb, according to Chronicle Live.
