I think I mentioned in earlier post that Matt wasn't able to have his fourth consolidation treatment for AML due to shortage of his chemo drug ARA-C. We praise God that Matt's AML was diagnosed in November and was able to get the treaments he needed. I can't imagine what families must be facing right now knowing that the one drug with such a high curer/remission rate is not available. I pray for them.
You can learn more info here about the shortages of ARA-C/Cytarabine. Here is an article from Houston. I also found this news video from Phoenix that helps explain.
