kidney/bone marrow

[d-man]

dose anyone know anything about the kidney/bone marrow transplant thing their doing? I have read a little about it and from what I've read people don't have to take anti-rejection meds. I was talking to my neph about it and he sad that he had read a little about it but that all he really knew is that I would have to be part of a study to do it and most transplant teams where not part of the study.

thanks I knew the info was here  I just have a hard time finding things on chat sites some times 
it dose not say anything about chemo, I was reading a post that said that they use chemo to drop the recipients immune system and then build it back with the donors marrow and immune system is this the same procedure or are they different?
