First, congratulations on your 2nd stem cell transplant being successful! How are you doing now, years after transplant? Any GVHD issues?

Would you mind sharing your stem cell story with me? What medical condition prompted the transplant? I had Acute Myeloid Leukemia and thankfully it is in full remission with my transplant from June 2019. Because of the aggressiveness of the leukemia I required an allogenic transplant from an unrelated donor. Was yours an allogenic transplant or were you able to use your own cells?

Your last line; “It wasn’t too bad except for the food” made me chuckle. You were really lucky if that was your chief complaint! Plus being in the hospital only 2 weeks!

I hope you share your story! You never know who you might encourage along the way.
