Hello,
this is the problem of the patients who have mds and the chance of having a donor.
How old is your husband?
Here in Belgium, the practicers perform mini transplant for older people (->70 years old). For a high risk myelodysplastic, it's approuved that transplant can given a longer survival that best supportative cares... In fact, vidazza stop always to work ... but no one can know when....
The results are better when the patient is in remission.
It is normal of being affraid when you see the statistics but you should not forget that the results are better and better each year and that the last statistics doesn't show that...
The decision is hard but transplant is always now the only solution for beating mds.
Sorry for my bad English.
Friendly regards
