Haplo/Cord

I have been told that NIH is doing Haplo/Cord BMT with very good results. This program is under the direction of Dr. Rick Childs. I hope I understand the theory correctly: The Haplo stem cells get you thru until the cord cells can get enough strength to take over. The cord cells are so naive (for lack of better word) that there is less GVDH. If nothing else, it is worth a call to NIH. If you do end up going to NIH, they will assist you with travel cost, and finding a place to stay if you enter a protocol. The care at NIH is always free. My son was treated by Dr Neil Young at NIH. We will Forever be grateful for his knowledge and ability to cut right to the heart of the problem and give clear advice. NIH is truly a blessing! I have heard wonderful things about Dr Childs and his staff.
