A baby boy battling a rare and deadly genetic disease has undergone a life-saving bone marrow transplant after a vital miracle donor was found days after his first birthday. Reign Miller-Hardy has hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis, a condition where his immune system attacks healthy tissues and organs. But Reign's family announced that a match was found in October and the baby is now on the road to recovery. Reign still remains high risk of infection but is allowed outside his "bubble" as his immune system is getting stronger. The genetic condition means the immune system attacks healthy tissues and organs including the liver, brain and bone marrow.
