My husband relapsed after his SCT also at 8 months. He is currently going through induction chemo again with the hope of DLI. There was really no other option. He has an amazing attitude and a fighting spirit which is so important. For him, Vidaza did not work. It is so hard to make these difficult decisions and I am sorry that you have to go through this. I wish you and your father the best.

As far as your question regarding GVHD, my husband experienced a little of it both of the skin and the gut. The doctors seemed pleased at the time. However, he still relapsed. They are counting on the GVL effect this time if he does get the DLI. It is all one big science experiment really.
