Hello everyone,
It?s been a while since I posted updating the 2nd transplant. (just about 2 years 2nd transplant transformed to AML) 7 years after the first MDS. He had a haplo transplant with our daughter as his donor. She is awesome! The first was a MUD. Very grateful for his selflessness from a stranger donor.
This one has been a much longer recovery than the first transplant due to some complications. With the first transplant recovery went well with no issues. We are very grateful for the transplant team in getting him through this transplant and has been in remission since.
Over the past several months he is now doing wonderful! His last issue is iron overload and is having phlebotomies to knock the ferritin levels down. It is a long process but it?s working.
For all those patients and their caregivers who have to endure these horrible blood diseases, please have hope! Wishing everyone all the best! This forum is very helpful and will give an understanding but also know that everyone?s case is different. Meri? Thank you for always checking in on us when you post! So happy to hear you are doing well! Hope everyone else is doing well too!
Rarity
