Bailie is right - being young will really be an asset for you. I am also super nervous about having the transplant done. Reading the transplant stories on here and also on a facebook group called Bone Marrow and Stem Cell Transplant Survivors Club have helped me tremendously.

Hi traceyn11 i will look into that group on fb. And yes we found out my brother is a perfect match for me. Now we wait for a date for him to get some testing done to make sure he is healthy enough to donate.
