Linda,

I'm with Lisa in hoping that you'll never have to go the transplant route. You may be worrying your self unnecessarily by thinking about how you would find a donor and even pay for the search. The success rates for ATG treatment are so good that it's likely you'd never face a transplant.

It's terrific that you'll be seeing Dr. Young at NIH. I have to believe that any doctor would want you to have ATG before you consider clinical trials like the one for Campath. Let us know how that visit goes.

Regards,
Ruth Cuadra
