I met someone in the infusion/transfusion ward last Thursday who had a cord transplant which lasted 8 1/2 years. He then had an autologous transplant, which only lasted 18 months. Both were due to no match being found. He is now on chemo and hoping to go into remission so he can try for an allogeneic transplant. He is probably in his early 50's.
