"Undoubtedly the diagnosis of blood cancer irrevocably changes the
lifestyle of the patient as well as the whole family. The diagnosis
often carries an undercurrent of dread and even terror, largely
because of the general public’s perception of these diseases,
much of which stems from non-medical media reports. But the medical
facts speak for themselves: an increasing proportion of patients
with certain types of blood cancers are now being cured. Perhaps,
I, myself, can be considered fortunate enough to be among
them.
Reading Understanding Leukaemia and Related Cancers should facilitate a better understanding and help patients to improve their chances of cure. Knowing what lies ahead at each moment is also an important source of encouragement." – José Carreras President, International Jose Carreras Foundation
