It depends. If the cancer relapses it can be resistant to chemotherapy I've been exposed to before, which makes the prognosis a lot worse. There are alternative chemotherapies though and they can repeat the transplant. But yeah, if they can eradicate all traces of the cells now, and if the donor T -cells succeed in fighting off any cancerous cells that remain, the odds are a lot better. It is difficult to deal with, or was definitely so at the beginning. But I guess people are really adaptable -- I've a list of things I want to do and try when I get out, and right now I feel like even if I only had another year I wouldn't be too bummed. |
