Andy Battaglia:
I doubt the autoantibody ever completely disappears but the goal is to keep it from being activated and this is why genotype matching of blood is so important. Better matching means fewer antibody reactions allo and auto. Just as with an allergy, another immune system response, by minimizing exposure, you can minimize reactions. Once the IVIG and Ritux got his system back under control and protected to some extent, the strategy becomes minimizing exposure to new antigens.

Hi Sharmin
Good to hear that he has been transfused. I hope that there are no problem with the antibodies.
When there is a dearth of blood, is it possible that you or his father help with that or is it because you are both minors that your blood won't help?
Take care

Sharmin:
Andy,
Thank you for helping me understand.
Jade, neither my husband nor I are a match for my son to donate blood. I am O+ and my husband is A-, our son is O-.
These are our phenotypes - but immediately it tells us that our genotypes are as follows: mine O+O-, my husband's A-O- and my son would be O-O-. Our daughter is A- and her genotype based on ours is A-O-.
