I like how they manage to keep people at home. What worries me is how everything is measured financially.. Anyway

Hello from Ali
Hello everyone I just came to know about this site few days ago. I was diagnosed with CLL in Feb 2017 at the age of 37. Had no visible symptoms, just the routine blood check led to this. My WBC was 23 at that time. My oncologist said that I am fine for the time being and I can eat anything I want and

Starting CAR-T therapy for my relapsing CLL
Friends and CLL Society supporters: This isn't easy. After consulting with my wife, my family, my closest friends and key supporters of the CLL Society, I decided it was best to again share details of my personal battle with CLL in a very public way. After a wonderful run of 69 months on Ibrutinib,

The Cancer Genome Atlas (from NIH) - Great Cancer Resource
There are at least 200 forms of cancer, and many more subtypes. Each of these is caused by errors in DNA that cause cells to grow uncontrolled. Identifying the changes in each cancer’s complete set of DNA – its genome – and understanding how such changes interact to drive the disease will lay the foundation

We need you!
Many of you have completed the Leukaemia Care patient experience survey over the past two years, Analysis of your replies clearly shows that CLL patients are left with little support from healthcare providers during ‘watch and wait’ and you are often not provided with information to help you understand
