Hi Kristel, Leah is adorable! I'm sorry that I missed this post. My daughter did PD and HD for a year before her double transplant at 16 months of age. It is challenging but SO worth it! She is now 13 and doing really well - a happy rising 8th grader who starts summer today. Welcome to the group and please let us know what questions we can answer for you.
