This post contains some links that I have been reading regarding stem cell transplant.
Yes, this is a very personal decision, and a TOUGH one!

All of the information is daunting. Am I a good candidate, yes. Especially with my mental and emotional stamina! It requires a complete ablation of the immune system, and then a donor! The most important part, a donor. Going to put some more research into the topic and consult with doctor on Thursday. Let's see what this old fart says about this! Luckily, I am in at Emory Cancer Center, but that doctor, he is not so stem cell friendly. We shall see!
Blessings
