What is leukemia? | Hematologic System Diseases | NCLEX-RN | Khan Academy

Leukemia is a collection of cancers which create a large amount of immature blood cells. These immature blood cells take up space in the bone marrow, preventing the bone marrow from making healthy blood cells such as platelets, red blood cells, and white blood cells. Learn about the symptoms of this disease which include prolonged bleeding, frequent infections, and bone pain. Created by Nauroz Syed.

    I'm 28 now, but had Leukemia from age 3 to 7. I was given a 45% chance of survival, but pulled through. I feel now more sad about my Mom & the mental Hell she went through being a parent. Mom stayed with me day & night those years while Dad worked endless hours of overtime to support us. You can beat this, never give up hope.

    Don't feel bad, your Mom loves you, the alternative is too horrible for her to contemplate, & you're worth it!!! I'm sure she doesn't regret one second, I know I wouldn't! Just be grateful you beat it. Much Love
