Bob: Contd... the mantle growing up. Two of my nephews had non-sibling BMTs (the same donor!) and are doing well. I'm sure you'll do well, too.
Bob: Godspeed, Mr. Sean, and Mom & Dad! I am a 42-yr-old WAS "club member" with five kids of my own and had the opportunity to train astronauts for 10 yrs (now I'm staying at home with the kids while writing novels). I also need to get a monthly IVIG infusion, as I had my spleen out at 28 (at NIH) but never had a BMT--just never got that sick. I lost two brothers to WAS, but as I was only 1 1/2 when the younger of the two passed I never knew them, beyond the single photo of each on the mantle growin
Kerry: Hi -- I saw your post on another kids site. My son had WAS and was transplanted at 7 months. Pre-transplant we went through hell getting IVIG and such, too. I'm sorry that you have to go through it all, but he will get better. Sam did not lose his spleen but was close to it. His counts were really low and every trip to get platelets I worried that he would lose it. If you need to talk or anything please feel free to contact me. You can email me at kerryveitch@comcast.net. It sounds like

On Dec. 6, we met with the hematology doc about the blood clot and stroke issues.  He said that it is very rare for a baby to have those type of problems.  He is going to run some test, but he also mentioned that preventive treatment isn't much of an option for a baby either.
 
We have our transplant dates!!!!  Sean will be admitted Jan 5-8 or 9th for daily IV infusions.  Then he'll be home for 10 days.  On Jan. 19th, he will be admitted for his long stay of 4-8 weeks. 
 
The official bone marrow transplant infusion will be on Jan. 27th.
 
His central line will be put in on Wednesday.  Fridayhe is scheduled to be sedated for a bone marrow biopsy and pulmonary test.  On Tuesday the 27th, Sean will have a kidney test & chest x-ray.  Jan 4th, they'll do a developmental evaluation and his IVIG infusion.  And of course, as I mentioned above, he'll be admitted on the 5th.
 
For those who know our family, our 2nd daughter will be having scoliosis surgery on Wednesday also.  My parents are being a real answer to prayer, we would not be able to manage all of this without them.
