Our decision for trying Vidaza first had much to do with GVHD. Since we knew that I tolerated the Vidaza well without GVHD We thought that it should be the first approach for remission. The DLI brings GVHD into the picture. The positive side of the DLI is that it can have an influential effect on "graft versus leukemia" (GVL) and GVL is what we are always searching. I will be interested about your conversation with the doctor. I am sure your Dad really appreciates everything you have done for him.
