We felt that was a sign from God that we were to go forward with the transplant as we had some doubts. I thought that it was unbelievable that they found a donor that quickly. Therefore he can go straight to transplant from induction without additional chemo. We are so thankful!

Hi - That was really fast - like I said before I am in the registry as of Friday and I heard from a patient that was at the BMT unit at Northside and she too had a donor located in 2 to 3 weeks. That is just amazing to me-I hope they find one for me that fast too!! I am so ready to get going - I feel really good about things -- Best wishes and keep in touch please with what is going on.
