So 'live stem cell donor' is liver transplant? My sister has just been diagnosed with 'C'. She has started chemo therapy with a research drug (weekly injections and daily pill). If after six months the treatment looks as if it is working she will continue, otherwise, next year there is a new drug regiment being introduced, She will start on that one. If that doesn't show results in 6 months, then she will need the transplant. I was thinking I needed to wait to check for match on the liver. So I will go ahead and test for her match. Can one person do more that a one time 'live liver donation' after regrowing the liver?
