Both of my docs (GP & Heme) are concerned & sensitive with Quality of life and other health issues. My heme told me his job was to keep me alive as long as possible with a good quality of life acceptable to me, not him.
Both my GP & Heme understand and fully support a decision not to go ahead with transplant, knowing that to some the possibility of having to endure what a lot have to endure for years is unacceptable to some.
