Depending on what type of AML you have determines your outcome, unfortunately ours is not a good type and we are holding on by strings, so we just keep our head up and carry on, it is so very hard at times though, she has been going downhill in the past month and I know it is frustrating her.I guess thats the ugly side of Leukemia


Tina has been through so much, at such a young age. It makes us step back and realize we have been blessed.

You and Tina are an inspiration. You are always offering encouragement and words of support to other members on this forum.

It is difficult enough seeing our loved ones go through everything, but when they are discouraged, it seems to be twice as hard. I wish I could wrap my arms around everyone and take this awful disease away. I know I couldn't be as strong as they are.

Hugs to you and Tina!
