Is it the kind of situation where a bone marrow transplant can be done?

Praying for little Jacquelyn.

We were hopeful for that but the doctors say it will take a lot of chemo and she would need to be in much better health before they would even consider bone marrow. They did test her little sister and she didn't match and they said they'd test the parents later if the need arose so it doesn't sound like there's a very good chance of it happenning soon.

I'd like to give more information but it is hard to talk about it all because the parents get very emotional. They're trying to be strong and they are counting every blessing especially after spending so much time in hospitals with other sick children. I have such respect for them because in their own pain and fear they can feel so much compassion for others too, even Jacquelyn worries about other kids who are sick.
