Well, I promise to stick with you through all of it and I know many others on here will be right along with you. ☺️
One thing that will be required is for you to have a caregiver who will accompany while you recover from the transplant, especially the first few months. Do you live near the clinic that will do the transplant?

I also had an allogenic transplant in 2020 to treat AML. I am approaching my 3rd “Rebirthday” and am doing great! I had some bumps along the road since then - high liver enzymes and skin issues due to sun exposure because of my antifungal medication. However, I golf 3-4 days/week and play pickleball! I was fortunate to live 1-1/2 hours from the Mayo Clinic and had a great team there! I am happy to share my experience and answer any questions. I wish you all the best in your treatment!
