Julie's Adventure

Hello Julianna

The Leukaemia foundation in Vic provides transport for treatment is neded. We went to Peter Mac for a trial of Revlimid in 2007-8. We flew down each month from NSW. They are the top cancer hospital and do a lot of research and are happy to consult over the phone if you wanted a second opinion.

I have heard of secondary MDSfollowing other chemo treatments. it is bad that you are young but good that you may be able to get a BMT if needed.

Good luck

Helen
