I just thought I would update since I have not been back here since my previous posts. I wish everyone well.

I'm so glad to hear from, you, HappySoul3.
Going from very high-risk MDS, through a successful stem cell transplant, and into the recovery phrase, even a long recovery phrase, is quite an accomplishment.
Congratulations to you, your donor, and the doctors and nurses who got you through the process. And good luck for the coming months.
Do you have any advice for others who find themselves where you started?
