Debbie,
The induction therapy did put my husbands leukemia in remission, but it took 3 weeks instead of the two that they were expecting it to take. However, the MDS was still present. The MDS and it's cytogenetics are the bigger picture for my husband. The fact that he has it at such a young age and how quickly he went from having 1 cytogenetic to 3+ shows how aggressive it is.
You are very fortunate that your husbands brothers are matches. Are his blasts still not below 5%? You had the 7+3 in the begining of Aug, right? Since they already have a donor will they move to transplant as soon as his blasts drop low enough?
