    I am 19 now, but was diagnosed with ALL when I was 18. I didn't know about the Cancer Network and I always felt I was pretty much one of a kind with my problem since there are some many children and elderly with the disease. What type of medications are you going through, any complications? I am the queen of complications. I am happy to say I am in remission now, and am back in school.
