Hi Susan

I meant second round of treatment and glad things are still going well. Just as a matter of interest there is woman a few rooms down from my husband who had blasts just over 20% when she was diagnosed. She did the same original trial my husband did (Dacogen and Tretinoin) but with much better results, after four rounds her blasts were reduced to the low single digits and she had her transplant on 9/30. Wish there was some way to tell in advance how our bodies would handles certain treatments.
