Hi @myfablife
Thank you for your kind wishes for our grandson.

My husband just turned 65 a couple weeks after the BMT. His doctor told him just last week that his age is the only thing not in his favor for enduring the transplant but because he is fit and in good health otherwise, that counteracts his age.

I am sorry to hear you were denied a transplant. I have been quite encouraged by all the positive outcomes for AML treatments that are not as toxic as treatments that used to be the standard of care. I wish you the very best outcomes indefinitely!

Mary

Mary so very very happy/excited for your husband. I am 63 very good health but I have ckd, with a LTP that was done in 2020, they just felt it would be way to much on my organs especially a TP liver introducing some more foreign cells. I am so disappointed bc that is the best tx. for AML w/mutation.
Where did your husband have his TP, you may have said.
I am wishing him nothing but the best of health indefinitely to.
Mel💚😋
