My name is Vicki and I am a caregiver for my mother-in-law. She has lived with me and my husband now for over 3 years. She was diagnosed with a rare form of Leukemia,Large T cell.

I just need to talk to someone who is doing and going through what I have been for 3 years.

    Hello Vickie

    I am a new caregiver for a Leukemia Patient. The patient is my husband. Little different than your situation but I would think there would be some similarities. Please help.
