The aim of this site is to provide information, guidance and advice to anyone in need of help. If you or anyone you know is going through Leukaemia or has been through it, this site is for you. After suffering with a very rare form of Acute Myeloid Leukaemia with PH+(Philadelphia Chromosome) for the last 18 months, I wanted to make advice available and discuss my personal experience of having the illness. I dont feel enough people are aware of the condition and this site will aim to provide information about Leukaemia aswell as documenting my experiences during a tough 18 months for my family and I. This is only a small preview of the book i am trying to write about the whole ordeal to date. Please inform me if you would be interested in the finished book as all proceeds will go to Leukaemia Charities. UK Leukaemia patients need YOUR help, please donate your bone marrow. Visit blood.co.uk or anthonynolan.org.uk to register, please..we need your help!
