(and I mean that sincerely) just couldn't diagnosis. You may want to consider trying to get accepted there. They saved my husband's life - he has been in remission going on 4 years now after over 125 blood/platelet transfusions.
I wish you the best!
Sally
So glad to hear your husband is doing so well and in remission!
