My friend was recently diagnosed with acute aml leukemia. Might I ask what clinical trial you were enrolled in and where? She is having a real time with this, she is being sent to UCD Davis for a clinical trial and was told by the doctor hat she may only have a few months left. Any info I could pass on would be appreciated. I’m so glad to hear of your outcome there is lots of hope out there. Thank you.

I’m so sorry to hear about your friend! I was diagnosed with AML seven years ago. I was not given much time to live unless I received a stem cell transplant. I went through a lot of chemo to prepare me for the transplant. I’m here today because of it.

I did participate in a clinical trial, but it was during the transplant to try to prevent GVHD.

Is stem cell transplant an option for your friend?
