A seriously ill student has begged for help stem cell donor in the next two months after being told she will die if no match is found.

Final-year Cardiff University medical student Vithiya Alphons , from London, said she was diagnosed with an aggressive form of leukaemia after falling ill during a lecture.

Doctors have warned her she is facing a race against time to find a donor - something made more complicated by her Sri Lanka heritage.

Ms Alphons said: “I knew it was going to be difficult because there aren’t many people from South Asian backgrounds who are signed up as donors.
