Try Vidaza--there have been some studies where it may have a positive affect on AML....I tried it and it wasn't bad...I feel it prolonged my life somewhat, but then I had to stop....

Everyone on this site will tell you what an emotional roller coaster dealing with a blood disorder is! Virtually everyone is on the same train but in a different car....each one of us has unique experiences....
Your brother has had quite a time of it, and he is so young...how does he feel?
Keep on trying...where there is breath, there is hope!
