In May 2023 MDS went to AML with 16% blasts. Blood #s were all over the place, transfusions sometimes 3 or 4 times a week. Blasts got to 26% by Dec '23....hospitalized to start vidaza and Venetoclax...7x14. By January 2 all numbers were in safe levels. By September 2024 AML was in remission. No transfusion since July 2024...on 15th cycle living near normal life at 80 yo. My care team at OCSRI Tulsa OK is first drawer. Blood # s are now dancing around suggesting other movements to the good. We'll take it.
It's been a journey. As you I was fearful 😰 of tomorrow's. Find joy in family, friends, and relatives. Do things that purposely challenge your grit. There's a beautiful world out there. Good luck.
