Definitely true GVHD sucks. The article gave me the impression that they were saying it was somehow superior at stopping the disease because it said this "stem cell transplants, have sometimes been used to slow the disorder's progression in infants,"

(fyi a decent amount of stem cell transplant survivors do not have to take immunosuppressants for life)
