Smile Good news!

Hi, just wanted to put some good news out here. As my signature says I had AML. I also had runx1 and trisomy 6. Post transplant the trisomy 6 went but runx1 remained in a few cells... my consultant was discussing DLI with me. Well as of my latest bone marrow biopsy in August BOTH are gone! And I am complete donor :-)
Yay for small miracles :-)
Lisa

That's fantastic, Lisa! Congratulations! Your family must be thrilled, and your baby doesn't know how lucky he or she is.

Your donor must have been a great match. What do you know about your donor?

How's the cyclosporine reduction going?
