I was diagnosed with A.L.L. in December 1998 and went through a year of treatment. When I was 3 weeks from the end of "maintenance", it relapsed in the Central Nervous System. Because of "pneumonia"...I am a few months behind in my treatment; but, have a long way to go. Would like to hear from anyone who is or has gone through this. |

Dear ginny, your story remids me alot of my time in treatment, I was diagnosed dec. 1 1997, and at right about the time you were diagnosed I was nearing the end of one phase of my treatment, from sept. 98 to summertime I had pnemonia 5 times, and each was a direct result of the most potent and toxic medicine in my protocal, ara-c, my hospital recovery ranged from 6-13 days, and I would always be send home with more medication. A few times after an episode I was sent home with an I.V. pole and did many of the meds myself. Dont let my story get you down, because now I'm 2 years out of treatment and I'm feeling great, I have began a chatroom specifically for people that have been in our position, if you would like to visit it than go to www.topica.com and type in the subject- cancerkids-, once you join the list you can visit the chatroom, I'm usually in at around 5 oclock eastern time, every weekday, so come on and we can share more.

Chrisy...thank you for the information on the chatroom. I am interested in joining the "group" there. I registered at "Topica.com". The only thing there is "search". When I enter "cancerkids" there - it says that there is nothing found. It just has a bunch of advertising lists you can join. What am I doing wrong? Could you give me another route to get to the chat room??? Thanks.
