Hello to you. Inform your father that having the transplant has offered him hope of future years with his family. I  am 4yrs on from my stemcell transplant and am in very good health. He will go through the most difficult period right now but be assured it does taper away. Your Dad's body is in a very weakened state at the moment. To be brutally frank you need to look at issues that can/will occur and be ready. For myself at his current stage I was struck with severe shingles, the hospital felt was gvhd, but was not. If he has not been offered the shingles jab get it asap. I was diagnosed with Bell's Palsy. which needs to be treated with steroids and clears up. To be for warned is to be for armed. Get him into a routine and keep a diary of events. Go with him for a short walk each day. I used to have dextrose tablets and small fruit pots handy before hand and set the whole thing into a routine. Each week gets better and your confidence.He will have a weakened immune system for a very look time so note problems that may arise. Get the 7 steps Anthony Nolan handbook and associated pamphlets.

The light at the end of the tunnel is bright !

Best wishes to your father and happy for further contact if you wish.

Yours, Barry.
