Waiting in limbo. Admission was scheduled for today but postponed. Pre-transplant testing was normal but insurance gave a denial. Waiting, with my caregivers after having moved us far from home to near Mayo. Appeal will be in about two weeks. I was blown out of the water and caught off guard by the denial.

Grace, that’s awful to be so close to transplant and have the rug pulled out from under you!
Was there no indication it wasn’t approved before yesterday? Had your insurance paid for pre transplant testing and then actually denied treatment? Wow!
May I ask what condition led you to your SCT? Is this using your own cells or a donor?
