You may have seen from this forum that I did CAR T last February. I spent 2 weeks in hospital for observation. I had zero side effects. Along the way I met numerous wonderful people - mostly doctors and nurses. For the most part I am feeling great. My body has definitely changed but in a highly probabilistic world, I put it down to the entropy that comes with age. I am going on 76 and I kid my oncologist that CAR T has definitely aged me - “I feel like I am almost 60!” Anyway I feel like this past year is a year that I should not have had - a year of borrowed time. And while I firmly believe in “the next life “, I am extremely grateful for it. I still have a lot to pass on to my grandchildren and now I have the time.

Thank you for sharing your story, i am glad you are doing well.
It does seem like the way to go, but the unknown is always scary.
And the aftercare can be a burden on family and friends.
