For a bone marrow transplant, they basically have to kill your existing bone marrow, using chemotherapy and/or radiation. This necessarily risks infection, causes overall systemic weakness, and so forth. I imagine the sicker you are to start with the greater the risks.

Since Lewis took the day off following his Day of Work from Hell, we went to Ruby Tuesday's for lunch. I had a giant salad and then was only able to finish half my burger (which they actually cooked medium-rare-- OMG!). Brought the rest home, now I have to hide it from my carnivorous daughter.
