I follow Lori and her post and found yours. I had MDS and a BMT. All your husband is having is what i am reading about. Until you or someone you love has a blood cancer, it is crazy seeing all that can potentially go wrong with any of us. As a former platelet donor, I hope plenty are on hand to give your husband what he needs through this Car-T chemo prep.
One thing i do know is these transplant medical teams know what they are doing. A cure for us and success for them.

@katgob thanks so much for your reply. Platelets are the problem at the moment, they keep going into the low single digits. But there are plenty available and the docs don’t seem too concerned. The one thing that keeps me hopeful is that my husband feels and looks good (total opposite from last March and his diagnosis) and other than the platelets, everything else is strong. So we keep going. He will have the “smarter” T cells reintroduced into his system on Monday. So, on pins and needles until that process takes its course. I do have faith in the Mayo team to do things right!
