Hi Paul and bailie ...
Paul hope you are doing well, a second transplant is difficult, but if you happen to read this just do what is needed to get through this until your counts climb. It took longer for my husband's counts to rise the second time, but in retrospect it was a breeze, although if you told me that almost two years I would say you were delusional.
bailie, I replied in the thread linked below. Feel free to pick my brain and will do my best to respond.

I am really curious if when a person goes to "60 percent donor" is the other 40 percent the original blood type? My blood type changed from A+ to O+ at transplant.
Thank you.
