"Allogeneic stem cell transplantation — stem cell transplantation from a suitable donor — is the only treatment that has the potential to cure myelofibrosis. But it also has a high risk of life-threatening side effects.
Most people with myelofibrosis, because of age, stability of the disease or other health problems, don't qualify for this treatment"
I had stem cell transplant a year ago for MDS. Maybe you want another opinion depending on your mom's overall health.

Thanks Ray
Getting another opinion is a good idea
Anybody else want to comment?
