Chronic & Acute Myelogenous Leukemia Information and Resources
Myelogenous Leukemia. Cancer. It sounds scary doesn't it? It scared Carin and me when on October 16th of 2003, she was diagnosed with Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia.
"Hope is the power of being cheerful
in circumstances which we know to be desparate."
G.K. Chesterton
Carin had already defeated cancer once before. She lost her right leg above the knee due to osteogenic sarcoma. As if this wasn't enough, she was also nearly killed by an undetected grapefruit sized tumor that caused severe internal bleeding.
We have since learned to overcome our fears, or at least a portion of them, through education and understanding of this disease. We learned about things like Gleevec, a newly developed drug. We learned more about chemotherapy and radiation therapy. Our knowledge increased and gradually our fears decreased. It is our hope that we can help you do the same.
You have probably arrived at this page because you or someone you know has been diagnosed with
Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia or
Acute Myelogenous Leukemia. You want to know what it is
and what to do. Good for you!
We want to help you, increase your understanding, promote positive mindsets and reduce the fear that surrounds CML and AML. Even if you suffer from other forms of cancer you can benefit from the stories of hope and faith that you will find on this website.
Please poke around and discover for yourself what Myelogenous-Leukemia.com has to offer. Read Carin's story and be encouraged. Participate in our forums, blogs, Facebook and MySpace pages (which are coming soon) to network with other people in situations similar to your own.
Feel free to share this website with anyone you believe could benefit from its message or information.
Welcome. Please make yourself at home. We look forward to getting to know you and sharing our hope with you.
From the heart,
Carin & Duane
