Peachy,

I am very sorry to hear about the rapid progression to AML for your husband. The good news is that Colorado does have a very good transplant program at Presbyterian/St Luke's Hospital in Denver. They are connected to the Colorado Blood Cancer Institute. I have met several people there in their late 60s who have received transplant for AML and MDS. If you haven't already spoken to them, I would recommend you add them to your list. The doctors I have met have been patient, caring, and professional. I believe that they will help lead you down the right path.
