Ok, so here is the latest. After reaching no remission in 3 years despite various concoctions being injected into my husband he is now going to receive Donor Stem Cell Transplant in anticipation of and I quote the oncologist here "a complete cure"!!!! He goes into hospital in August to have Eshap chemo, he stays in for 5 days and then comes home for 2/3 weeks then goes in again for another 5 days and has another lot. After this stem cell transplant is organised hopefully using his sisters stem cells. We know nothing about how he is going to feel, can he have visitors when in isolation and if anyone can help me with this I would be extremely grateful as we can be forewarned and forearmed. He is extremely scared and sad and without information I cannot help him. We were blindsided by this news on Thursday, expected more chemo but not stem cell.
