Hi Mickey

First of all i want you to think thorughly before taking the decesion of the transplant and to weigh the risks accompanied in this procedure with the present management of thal now a days.

Second,make sure that the stem cells of your daughter to be tested in order to eliminate any possibility of a genetic disorder that could cause problems to Kabir

To my knowledge, the center of Dr. Lucarelli in Pesaro/Italy is the best center for transplant in thalassemia in the world with the highest success rates

Good luck in what ever you decide and please keep updating

Hi Micky
You should consult a good hema probably someone in AIIMS. They will guide you and also explain the pros and cons in detail. According to our hema he rates italy and USA equally and UK follows after these two centers. Do let us know whatever you decide.

take care

hi
which centre is in US and uk? name. for italy i know but for there i dicuss with my doctor as he said in italy transplant cost is i can manage but if any complication follow ahead of GVHD or infections then for treating that the cost multiplie in many times and i cant afford that then i m scared of it. so i m then looking for option as best to it but i can go through it easly

please post proper names of places and links if you have in this post so i can accordingly discuss

i m testing properly for preserved cord blood for LCH and other reports of my daughter to avoid any infections ,if we get 100%  results then ill go forward otherwise will see another option . i cant take 1% risk in this

we i know its a tough decision but i had thinked lot and lot and after 30 years as i had see thals. here they all are facing many problems and life is good or not i m really so upset and i cant even think if of my son having any prob. so i must do this i think and sucess is 99% cuaz its related donor and 100% match.

Rest is upto God know.
