Nicole,

My daughter had a BMT for AA when she was 5 years old. She had her Hickman for 6 months post-transplant because she had complications with GvH and needed frequent blood tests, IV meds and IV nutrition. Her doctor considered her "cured" about 3 weeks after her transplant when her counts were sky high and going great. While her transplant was considered very successful, there is a reason why she needs to go in for yearly bloodwork, and I still look for signs of low blood issues...I don't think that will ever go away.
