The timing is right. You'll be starting the transplant in a matter of days and all of these factors are in your favor, including having an experienced doctor who understands the treatment tradeoffs. I think that the parents who ask questions and learn what's going on are the parents who help their children the most.

Even though the doctor is directing the medical team, be sure to take advantage of the nurses and other professionals at the hospital, who can give you advice and assistance about your child's comfort, any day-to-day practical issues you have, and everything you'll need to know once your son goes home.
