Hey Birgitta!
Excellent! Of course I should know that the community does in fact talk about "remission" in the case of MDS. I was so caught up in trying to make the distinction between cytotoxic chemo and the MDS therapies that I blew it on that one.
Thanks for keeping us all straight.
Take care!
Greg
