Hello korakkodan, sorry to hear of your mum's diagnosis. What country are you in as advice might differ from country to country.

In the UK transplant is seen as a treatment option when all else has really failed and where in reality the patient will sadly die of their condition without it.

If doctors feel t/p is needed for your mum then go forward with the process & best wishes with it.
