Consult with other doctors . . .

Hi, welcome to the group . . .
Please see other doctors. My Dad was diagnosed in the early to mid 90's with this illness and I was terrified he would not walk me down the aisle at my wedding and never see my children . . .
He walked me down the aisle and praise God has seen the birth of my children. They are now 5 and 6 years old. We are having a difficult year this year and he is now on Vidaza. For years he was helped with drugs to build red blood cells and white blood cells.
PLEASE do not lose hope and PLEASE do not allow any doctor to tell you how many years of life your mom has left. I have seen people overcome the biggest health challenges with love, prayers and good doctors.
I have found great comfort in aamds.org and now in this forum.
Hang in there and know we are here for you and your mom.

KEEP THE HOPE . . .

Donna
