It is hard to believe it has not even ben a year since my wife was diagnosed with CML. I will never forget the day my wife came home last July and told me she has cancer at only 37 years young and that we would need to go in the next day to talk to the Dr. We are lucky that we live in Seattle and have great cancer care here. Long story short is she was put on Gleevac and less then a year later she just got her last test back and in less then a year she is less then one tenth of percent and we are shooting for undectable next go around.
While there have been side effects the new normal as we call it is very livable. I would say she is back to her normal routine with only very limited changes. It truly is a great day to be alive.
Again just wanted to share the great news and provide hope to anyone out there that may be like me last July.
