Presumptive

Neil,

I truly expect the Institute of Medicine to recommend to the VA that MDS / AML, if not all bone marrow failure diseases, be added to the presumptive list. I expect that to be much sooner than later.

I also requested of the IOM that they specifically define MDS as what it is, a cancer, so that the VA would have no wiggle room.
