Bone Marrow Transplant

Hi my name is Haydee. I need help finding a doctor that will perfom a bloodless bone marrow transplant. I'm from San Diego, CA and we're having a hard time finding a doctor that will perform the procedure with no blood. My husband is 32 and was diagonosed with testicular cancer in February of this year. The cancer spread to his lungs. He's been thru 1 round of chemo and lung surgery to remove some the remaining lesions. Unfortunately his tumor markers went up again. At first it seemed that he was responding well to the chemo treatment, but after his surgery last week his tumor markers jumped up. Our next step is a round of VIP chemo and a bone marrow transplant. The only problem, according to my husband's doctor, is our only option for the bloodless procedure is in Massachusetts. Are there any doctors in California that will perform the procedure with no blood? I don't know how you will respond back but my e-mail address is advancedwoodfinish@yahoo.com.

Thanks
