Glad your mom has a plan in place and is happy with her new medical team. As you know, this disease will test your patience.

Hopefully the ATG will knock out the SAA quickly. I'm a bit confused as to why they are going to do a BMT later. If the ATG works for her, then why a BMT? Is it related to her kidney disease?

Wishing your family the best outcomes.
