Thankyou very much @loribmt for listening me.
I don't have any family members here in Canada just few good friends. You are such an amazing and strong personality despite of so many Health Challenges and You win with your Will Power.
I don't want to take him back to India as I believe the Doctors and Treatment which he is getting here in Canada is excellent. We’ll wait for the confirmation of the BMT and then we can talk more about that.
strangers are doing this for people they’ve never met, in increasing numbers. If it were too dangerous I don’t think they would go through with it. I’m grateful every day for my (then) 20 year old male donor (that was 6 years ago). This phrase of yours really Touched my Heart. We are making our minds ready for the upcoming things .I am really relaxed after talking to you as you have explained all this so nicely. You are very Brave Kind Human Being. I will surely disturb you again after a while .
Nice talking to you . Stay blessed and happy Healthy

Thank you for such a lovely and gracious reply. I’m here to offer support anytime, @anitasharma. When my husband and I went through this process there was no one we could speak with who had ‘walked the walk’. My BMT team was outstanding with offering information and encouragement. But it’s not the same as being able to speak to someone with firsthand knowledge.
That’s why I’m here, to offer support and hope to others going through the BMT process. It’s been a mission for me to pay it forward since I’ve been given a 2nd chance at life. It’s truly my honor to be able to help you and your husband. There are quite a few of us members in the group here and we’re all lifelines when you need us. ☺️
So, please, contact me with any questions, concerns or use me as a sounding board.
Wishing only the best for your husband, you and your family! You’re all going to get through this and be stronger on the other side! One thing I learned in the process is that we truly don’t know how strong we can be until strong is the only option. ☺️
How old are your children? How are they handling their daddy’s illness?
