Nancy, firstly know that I am sending thoughts and prayers your way.

Thank you for the response. Those percentages are hopeful and your comments regarding standard of care reassuring and make me realize that the stories from a couple of years ago do no reflect the current treatment reality. I will be eager to hear how things move forward for you both. I think spouses may have the harder part of all of this, so take good care.

Hi @merrle

I was the caregiver to my mom and along her side every step of the way. My mom had both an auto Stem Cell Transplant and also the CAR-T therapy. So I would be happy to answer any questions I can help with. I give hope that CAR-T did technically have success over the Stem Cell. She had a couple rough days in the hospital but did not have any CRS symptoms or side effects. She was able to go home after the required hospital time and made a quick recovery.
