Can I join your group?
I was recently diagnosed with MDS (July) and I'm scared as hell too and looking for information. I need a stem cell transplant and found out today that my only brother is not a match. I survived non-Hodgkin's lymphoma from 2007 only to be told last month that my body apparently didn't tolerate the chemo very well and now I have MDS. I'm only 41 and was just getting over the looking over my shoulder all the time from the previous cancer and now this.
My co-worker is an AA survivor - 12 years. He was treated at Johns Hopkins at Baltimore so there is hope for all of us here.
I just wanted to say hi so I wouldn't feel so alone today.
