My 33 year-old daughter was diagnosed offically on May 13, 2005. It was a real shock, obviously. Not something you plan! Her WBC's didn't escalate until the doctor tried prednisone to verify that she didn't have an infectious process. So, after the BMB, she started on hydroxurea. We've been to UCLA and to OSHU in Portland, both wonderful places with caring, knowledgable staff. Started on 600 mg Gleevec which we were told is having great success at MD Anderson and in Australia. I guess the hardest part, aside from an uncertain future, for my daughter is trying to be enthused about work and mundane life chores when what she wants to do is hold her three little children close to her. Life has taken a different path now but already it is one that is changing our lives and making us so much more aware of the things that really matter. I have two other children who are in the process of being tested to see if they are 100 percent matches for a BMT. That is our prayer at this time. This group has been a great source of inspiration and education. Thank you! Loggin
