DanL, Glad to see you posting and I hope your feeling better.
I read this paper a few months ago and its very encouraging. Seems after 2 years the probability of reaching 10 years is around 85%, after 10 years life expectancy returns to normal. Those studies were for patients receiving transplants prior to 2004 so with todays advancements you might see even better results. and as time goes on more advancements in medicine will increase those odds. The study done for the 60-70 age group is for non-myoblative conditioning and isn't as clear with the results as this one.
Take Care and get well soon! - Steve
