1st Re-Birthday
Today is my son's first re-birthday, he received his SCT for MDS/AML from an unrelated donor.
He is doing well a little bit of a rash from time to time (GVHD) and is back to work. He says he feels "normal".

Karen,
Feeling normal is the goal so many patients seek. Congratulations to your son, and to your whole family! Is your son still on Revlimid?

Congratulations to your son. The one year mark is a big one with transplant. It is very impressive that he is back to work already. A cheer to good health in the coming years!

They took him off it to deal with a rash and I dont know if he started back on it yet as he still has a slight rash which are now thinking is slight gvhd.

Happy 1st Re-Birthday to your son.
Glad he feels well enough to go back to work. I had my 2nd Re-Birthday in June. I am not back to normal yet, but I am a' little' older.

Thank you. He was actually back to work about 6 weeks after his transplant and finished up his psych residency. Then was chosen for the ped psych fellowship which was his plan before he got sick last year. I was so happy that the hospital had faith in him and his recovery to pick him for the fellowship.
