Katy's Story of Survival My life was dramatically changed one week before my eighth birthday when I became ill with flu-like symptoms and was diagnosed with type ALL Leukemia. This is my story from that moment on. My birthday invitations had been sent out when I became sick. I was ill for several days and when I developed nose bleeds and wasn't feeling better my parents took me to the emergency room. There they gave my parents the shocking news of my Leukemia. I was soon moved to Childrens hospital in Seattle where I underwent intense treatment to move my cancer into remission. It is critical to achieve this remission within the first thirty days. My parents stayed at the hospital with me, sleeping next to my bed or on a cot in the hall. We were all in shock for those first weeks, our lives, within days, turned upside down. I was first taken to surgery and a Port-A-Cath was placed into a large vessel near my heart. This reservoir is punctured by a needle. Blood can then be drawn and medications given through a tube. For the next two years and six months these treatments were

FELINE LEUKEMIA VIRUS DISEASES Feline leukemia virus infection was, until recently, the most common fatal disease of cats. Because we can now protect cats with a leukemia virus vaccine, we are seeing fewer cases of the disease. However, it still remains a major cause of death in cats. "Leukemia" means cancer of the white blood cells. This was the first disease associated with the feline leukemia virus (FeLV) and, thus, the source of its name. We often use the term "leukemia" rather loosely to include all of the diseases associated with the virus, even though most are not cancers of the blood. This virus causes many other fatal diseases, in addition to leukemia. What diseases are caused by the FeLV? There are three major disease categories associated with the FeLV: 1. The Leukemias are cancers of the white blood cells. 2. Lymphosarcoma is a cancer which begins in lymphoid tissue, such as a lymph node. Almost any tissue may be affected; organs commonly involved include lymph nodes, intestinal tract, kidneys, liver, spinal cord, brain, bone marrow and blood. 3. The Non-Cancerous Diseases include a variety of somewhat unrelated diseases. Anemia, abortion, arthritis, and immune suppression are examples. When the immune system is suppressed, the cat becomes susceptible to many diseases it would ordinarily resist and mild diseases, such as respiratory infections, may become fatal.

She gave him a picture of the 4 chambers for show and tell, but he will probably be too embarrassed to bring it to school. Then the bad news, which in the grand scheme of things isnt so bad... but the 4 pounds he had lost?... Ugh... he gained back 6. So those 4 PLUS 2 more. Now the oncologist didnt seem too concerned with the fact that my 8 1/2 year old, 110 lb. son has a 32 inch waist, but I am! He reiterated that its not uncommon for leukemia kids to be a little overweight and I said would you call this "a little overweight", and he said yes. He seems to think he will hopefully have a growth spurt soon, and I know in HIS world weight gain is the LEAST of the issues these kids can face. But in my world I know I am gonna hear it when we see the pediatrician again... the little girl next door went home crying when he (the pediatrician we both see) told her she was getting too fat and had to eat less... (I am sure / hoping those werent his exact words, but thats what SHE got out of it, which, to me, you tell the parents, not the 8 yr old girl...the kids dont bring the food in the house for the most part, the parents do...)

A Winn Foundation Health Article On ... Feline Leukemia Virus Feline Leukemia Virus by Susan Little, DVM, Diplomate ABVP (Feline) Feline leukemia virus (FeLV) is a retrovirus, a family of viruses which has many members that infect cats and cause disease and death in cats around the world. Another well-known feline retrovirus is the feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV). FeLV and FIV can be found together in the same cat. The prevalence of FeLV in single-cat households is about 3% and can be as high as 11% in stray cat populations. In large multi-cat households and in households where cats roam freely outdoors, the prevalence can reach as high as 70%. Cats roaming in urban areas are more likely to be exposed to FeLV (40%) than cats roaming in rural areas (6%). FeLV has been studied for over 30 years, both for its relevance to the cat population and because it serves as an animal model for some human diseases. Research has established key characteristics of FeLV: it is contagious, it directly causes both fatal cancerous and non-cancerous diseases, it can lie dormant in the bone marrow for a long time, and it can be protected against by vaccination. FeLV is not transmissible to humans or animal species other than the cat family. FeLV is a fragile virus that does not survive in the environment. Ordinary household detergents and bleach effectively kill this virus. There is therefore no danger that cats can be exposed to FeLV in veterinary clinic waiting rooms or exam rooms, or in cages, or at cat shows unless direct contact is made with a positive cat who is shedding virus. Transmission of FeLV requires intimate moist contact. The most common route is contact with infected saliva through grooming, licking, biting and shared dishes and litter pans. FeLV can also be transmitted through a blood transfusion, so all cats who are blood donors are screened for FeLV. Kittens can be infected by their mother before birth or during nursing after birth.

Mac users: please note that our site is optimized for the Safari browser Colds, aches, pains, and other ailments Leukemia Originally Published: February 17, 1995 Alice, I have a friend who is diagnosed with Leukemia. I would like to know what it is and what the survival rate for Leukemia is. Good friend Dear Good friend, Leukemia is a general term for several types of cancers which are represented by a proliferation of disorganized white blood cells in the bone marrow. They are called leukemic cells, and impair the production of red blood cells, platelets, and normal white blood cells. Leukemic cells circulate throughout the blood, impairing the function of organs such as the liver, spleen, lymph nodes or brain. Leukemias are either acute or chronic, and are classified by the type of abnormal white blood cell present. Acute cases generally develop more rapidly than chronic cases. If acute leukemia goes untreated it can be fatal within a few weeks or months. However with treatment, life can be prolonged and in some instances a complete cure may be provided. Approximately 6-7 new cases of acute leukemia are diagnosed per 100,000 people per year. Chronic cases include lymphocytic leukemia (excess mature looking lymphocytes), and myeloid leukemia (excess white blood cells called granulocytes). There are approximately 4 new cases of chronic lymphocytic leukemia per 100,000 people each year. It usually occurs in people over 50, and is incurable but is not always fatal. Treatment includes transfusions, antibiotics, and in severe cases, use of anticancer drugs, or radiation therapy. The disease progresses slowly, and more than half of those diagnosed with chronic lymphocytic leukemia survive at least five years from time of diagnosis.

At 38, Symcox had been diagnosed with a gastrointestinal stromal tumor, or GIST a type of stomach cancer that affects as many as 5,000 Americans each year. "I had absolutely been given no hope right from the beginning," she said. Until recently, there was no effective treatment for GIST. But researchers reported Sunday that a new cancer pill approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for a common type of adult leukemia showed encouraging results when used on stomach cancers like those Symcox had. The pill was approved for use against leukemia last week and has been hailed as a major breakthrough. It is taken once a day and causes virtually no side effects.
