Welcome Wifecll. Your husband was young at diagnosis and I can imagine it was quite a blow to you all. Delighted to hear he's now in remission following treatment and hope it continues for a very very long time.

It can't be underestimated the pressure partners and carers go through during this process.

Regards,

Newdawn

Hi Wifecll. What a blow to have your husband diagnosed when he's so young. At least his relative youth will have helped him recover from the treatment. How lovely that he's now in remission and you can put it behind you for hopefully a good time to come.

I am also am a Cll wife. Thankfully my hubby (44) is also in remission and keeping well. We are trying to be proactive as possible.

Last year hubby developed a free app during his treatment (treatmentplanner.org). We are now involved in starting group for CLL'ers in Ireland.

We wish you and your husband all our best.

I too am a CLL wife. My husband was diagnosed a few months ago at age 59.

I hope everything continues to go well for you and your family.
