I would give Dr. Young an email or call and ask him how he thinks you should proceed at this point. Since you have an established relationship with him, he will respond to you.

Although there are many success stories, the National Bone Marrow website has the success rate for children with unrelated donors at only 65%. If your child fell in the other 35%, it would be devastating. Dr. Young will have more information on the more recent statistics and will help you weigh the risks.
