I just joined the forum. Thank you for providing honest discussions. I am a 7+ year mini stem cell transplant survivor. I was diagnosed in 2000 with MDS and was the first MDS patient in a mini stem cell transplant clinical trial with pre-treatments of azacitidine (now Vidasa). If you feel that my journey may help you, please visit my website at
http://shirley.bulloch.org. My prayers to Jill and all others that are taking this journey. We need a stem cell transplant survivor's club.
