My 25 year old son was diagnosed with MDS in Jan. He will be admitted to Sloan Kettering June 23rd for a transplant. They found more than 20 donors and only tested 3. Two of them were perfect matches. His counts are good even after his final (third) round of chemo 2 weeks ago. He was on Dacogen which kept his counts way up. We are very optimistic that the transplant will be effective and he and his fiance can continue their wedding plans. Good luck to all who are dealing with this disease. Will pray for everyone along with my son.
