The more complicated medical words like lymphocyte and cytogenetics there are, the better. It’s acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and the diagnosed has less than a month to live. Also tell the diagnosed that he has to go for this check-up and that X-ray, whatever. Also talk about the treatment he has to go through, and whatever that is necessary for the diagnosed to know. Try to sound as professional as possible. Thanks! (I need this for a story I’m writing)

My friend has had leukemia for a long time now and I can tell he’s beginning to lose hope. For a while, I haven’t been able to say anything comforting to him without sounding awkward or stupid. I just want to be there for him but I don’t know how. If someone could please help me out, that would be great. Thanks!

(P.S. we’re both seventeen)

My friend’s mother was diagnosed with cancer and will soon be undergoing chemotherapy. My friend, realizing that her mother was about to lose all of her hair, cut off her own lovely red hair to make a wig for her mother. Now she needs to find an affordable wigmaker who can fashion the hair into a wig. Can anyone help my friend, or know someone who can?

I have a very low immune system since I had chemotherapy, radiation, and other breast cancer treatments and surgeries. Since I finished chemo and radiation less than a year ago, I have had shingles, meningitis, and have had to fight 2 infections in my left breast that had the radiation in it and will have to go in for surgery to have the implant removed, and replaced. I’m sick and tired of being sick and tired. What can I do? Also, gained 40 lbs and hate the weight gain.

OK, I’m writing a story about a girl who gets leukemia. But I was wondering, does she have to stay in the hospital for the entire time she has cancer? I thought it depended on how sick you were, but I really have no clue. Help please? If you have any other info on leukemia, I’d greatly appreciate it. I think I have a pretty good grasp on what it is, and I think I understand how it is treated, but obviously, I’m not an expert! Thanks so much!
