Hmmm... I thought I posted a reply but maybe I forgot to submit it. Sorry if this is a duplicate.
MDS RAEB 2 is considered high risk MDS, so these are the typical people for which a transplant is recommended. In the US, 64 is not considered too old for a transplant, especially if the person is healthy with no other comorbities.
I hope the Azacitidine will put your mom in remission so that you have time to seek out options.
Best to you and your mom -
