A comprehensive and easy-to-read book that's a must for patients considering a transplant using donor bone marrow, blood stem cells or cord blood. The book walks the reader through what to expect before, during and after transplant and includes the perspective of patients and caregivers as well.

"BMT InfoNet is a leader in identifying patient needs and developing educational programs that focus on the entire spectrum of blood and marrow transplantation – from pre-transplant phase to long-term  survivorship.  At our center, we frequently use BMT InfoNet’s educational materials for patient teaching and support.”."
