Today a quite brief teleconference took place with the grievance committe from Glen's insurance company, Glen, myself and Dr. Tricot. We are now waiting the decision as to whether or not an approval will be given for a second stem cell transplant for Glen.
Glen has no monoclonal protien , the 17p13 deletion. This puts him in a high risk catagory as to the effectiveness of treatment. A second SCT known as the Arkansas method is believed to give a longer life expectency. One has to believe.
And so we wait, we pray, and we pray some more. We should know the decision by next Thursday, August 4th.
Keep strong,
Vannette
