Good luck with the donor search. With 2 siblings, the odds are over 40% that one will match. If not, having a European heritage and both of his parents from the same country will help his chances for an unrelated donor match.
Thank you Neil! And I appreciate your comments regarding my question. I know this is a long journey but I will be with him every step of the way. Labs taken again this tuesday so I hope the blast count hasnt gone up.
