The recovery journey is diff for everyone acc to everything that I read concerning BMT. I have found that even moderate exercise makes a HUGE diff in how I feel and function. As an example, we had some heavy wet snow here ystrd, and I figured that is was a good idea to start work a few hrs late. I had to shovel out the snow at some point so I did that before I went to work. I got a bit sweaty, but when I got through I realized how much better I felt after doing that than I did before I shoveled. My experience is and recovery has not been that bad; I am almost 4 yrs post trans for PNH, but I still struggle with some fatigue and some skin GVHD. I wld suggest that your father in law maybe join a support group, do some online research, and get reg exercise. We all wish him luck.
