Yes, thank you for the reply. The idea of the spleen removal is not to "cure" for lack of a better word, the bad blood produced
the idea is that he is getting regualr blood transfusions and they are only lasting a few days, so the dr's want to pro long the time in between transfusions.
He is only a candidate for surgery of the spleen, so my family is very nervous. Do you know of anyone that has had their spleen removed? Anyone have any positive stories to share about this?
