EMBARGOED TO 0001 FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 22 Aditi, eight, with Professor Stephen Marks, Children's Kidney Specialist and Kidney Transplant Professor during an appointment at Great Ormond Street Hospital, London. Aditi is the first child in the UK and on the NHS to be taken off immunosuppressants just one-month after kidney transplant at the hospital. Picture date: Tuesday September 19, 2023. PA Photo. This is possible because Aditi had an immune condition for which she received her mother's bone marrow six months before receiving a kidney transplant for severe irreversible kidney failure. This reprogrammed her immune system to be the same as her donor kidney, so her organ would not attack Aditi's body. See PA story HEALTH Transplant. Photo credit should read: Aaron Chown/PA Wire
