Thank you so much for all the well thought out replies. It's definitely got me looking at the issue in a different way. Shauna has an appointment next month with her doc here at home and we'll talk to her about getting a consult with the Hutch. I know the doc in Seattle called them when Shauna first relapsed and they were the ones that suggested Cyclosporine alone and then a repeat ATG if that did not start showing results in three or four weeks. It surprised me a little then since I assumed that they would be biased toward transplant. They also know the quality of the matches that were identified three years ago -- all we know is that they found a match. As you have all said, it's just better to talk to them directly to understand their recommendations. Thanks again for providing a resource. As we all know, there aren't very many people available that you can bounce things off of that truly understand.
