We will know the timeframe at the end of April. At that time they will determine if they will do a splenectomy or will be able to proceed with BMT in the near future. I can’t tell you how much your communication is helping us. Thank you.

It’s my pleasure to help you in any way I can. I wished I’d had a mentor to help me navigate the transplant world. My doctors and all the staff at Mayo were absolutely the most caring and attentive people I’ve ever met. But they haven’t actually been on the receiving end of the experience. So it’s my goal to help anyone going through this process, to let them know there is hope on the other side and that it’s worthwhile for a second chance at life. I’m 68 and coming up on 3 years post allogenic transplant and feel fabulous! In fact I feel younger than I have in years! So I do my best to offer that same level of hope to others.

I know you’ll have a ton of questions. So don’t hesitate to reach out and ask! Will you let me know what you find out?
