Hey Danielle!
Sounds like you have a good team at West Penn. Mark's bone marrow reports probably have cytogenetics and blast counts in them. You might have to ask for copies to get a look.
I'm sure Neil can point you to his and his wife Ruth's stories (which involve a real transplant success).
You can find out about what I'm up to by reading
this thread.
And, for a good laugh, you can read about
my crazy last bone marrow biopsy.
Or you can check out my blog about my MDS at

Take care!
Greg
