I am a 48 yr old female, I was Dx SVAA in 11/07: RBC 13 Platelets 8, & three weeks later treated with horse ATG fallowed by Cyclosporine and prednizone. I was being transfused 3 or 4 times a week for the first couple months after. I have not needed a transfusion since 06/08. Today my RBC is 37.8, platelets 75 and whites 3.4.
Other then the giant monkey (disease) on my back I feel fine. I wish you luck with your son, keep him away from sick people and watch his diet. My Doctor said the chances of recovery in children are much better then in adults.
