Yah...just what I was thinking.
There are at least three or four versions of leukemia, and some diseases that are quasi-related to leukemia. Survival rate and success of treatment apparently depends on what form of the illness you have and probably whether it was caught early. I don't know if medicine can actually cure the disease, but I believe they can put some patients into long-term remissions. I know of one woman whose remission lasted more than 20 years. My mother, however, had multiple myeloma, which is related to leukemia -- survival rates are rather low for that illness (2 or 3 years at best), but my mother had other health problems, so she did not survive more than a few months.
That all said, I hope the Senator's treatment is successful and I wish him a speedy recovery and God's blessings on him and his family.
And Democrats wring their hands with glee...
He has acute Leukemia. It can kill you very, very quickly. My sister was diagnosed with acute Leukemia, on June 27 several years ago. She died 2 1/2 weeks later.
The chronic form can last for years. I've never known anyone to survive the acute form. The doctors had orginally told us that 1/3 die from the disease, 1/3 die from the chemo and 1/3 survive. We believe the chemo took our sister. Gosh how we miss her!!!!
I hope the senator does indeed beat this terrible disease.
My prayers going up for Sen. Craig Thomas and his family. God's protection and healing for Sen. Thomas...God's comfort for his family.
Blessings,

I am wishing this man well, and hope that his treaments serve him well...I take note that he was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia...this is a very dangerous form of leukemia, much harder to cure than other forms of leukemia...my own son died from one of the forms of acute myeloid leukemia, tho he died 21 years ago....still the treatment for this type of leukemia is very rough, and harrowing for anyone to go through, and I dont think that the statistics on the cure rate have increased in any substantial way, since my son was first diagnosed...the cure rate for this type of leukemia has gone up somewhat, but its still a very lethal type of leukemia...
Prayers offered for a remission and a return to better health...
Praying for him.
I join in prayer for him - God's blessing, healing and guidance!
Prayers for his healing.
