Resolved Question: Proof read and add please..its an essay that has to teach you about leukemia. Can you please add anything.?

Her eyes filled with tears as she got the news.. “You have Acute Myelogenous Leukemia, better known as AML. AML forms in immature cells. Well you survival chance is higher with AML then ALL. ALL also known as Acute Lymphoblastic Leukiema. “Hi my name is Sally and I’m ten years old.” “I just found out that I have Leukemia.” It all started about two months ago…I was always so tired and I went from being and energetic ten year old to taking cat naps throughout the day. My mom began telling my dad and different family members that I looked extremely pale. Of course I didn’t notice it but everyone else around me did. During the last month I began losing a great deal of weight due to my loss of appitite. My mom broight me to the doctors and they didn’t really know of any flus or viruses thatwere going around. They sent me to a specialist to have bloodwork done. And that when we got the news. I have leukemia. There are no screening tests for childhood leukemia. So if you think something is wrong you should see your physician. Leukemia is a cancer in the blood and bone marrow. Leukemia is tested for throught blood saamplke of bone marrow sample. The cell effected wioth leukemia don’t function properly. Its basically a mutation in the cell. The kind of leukiam I have, is in my blood notin my bone marrow or anything like tghat. I will undergo vigorous radiation to try to get rid of the cancer cells and then once the cancer is gone I will go inot remission which s the period of time when you are cancer free. I am very nervous about the radiation because I hear it makes your hair fall out. Radiation kills cancer cells and shrinks tumors. It can be given internally ot externally. I will be given treatment 4 days a week for 6 weeks. Going through radiation treatment did make my hair fall out a little bit and I was also very tired and weak. But if it makes the cancer al gone for good then iits will be worth it. more

Resolved Question: Writing a book and need a disease that can become terminal?

I need a disease or condition for a young girl to get suddenly (something that adult males have a better chance at getting) that's terminal. Something that'll kill her quickly (in a week or so).

The girl is 12, female (obviously), has a family history of breast cancer and heart disease, and has never had any health problems. Something uncommon. Doctors, what's an uncommon, terminal disease that a person can get?Sorry if I sounded insensitive, I've had a pretty bad day. more

Resolved Question: I dont know what to do?

Couple days ago my 19 year old daughter was diagnosed with Acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). My wife and I are both doctors that work at a hospital. I have treated this type of leukemia in many other patients. However, when i found out that my daughter has it, i thought i was hit by a truck. My daughter keeps asking me to be her doctor to treat her. The problem is, that i CANNOT be her physician. It is against the oath that i have taken. As much as i want to be the person to treat her, i cannot. So i'm sending her to another hospital to get her chemo. I cannot let my professional life interfere with my personal life. She hasnt spoken to me ever since. The only other person that understands me is my wife. My daughter hasnt spoken to either of us in days. I have to get her to understand why i cannot treat her. Please give me some advice on a way of telling her, i've never been really close to her as a child, so i need advice, please help!!! more
