    You really can't cure Leukaemia but you can read up on diets that will help to control it

    Some lukemias are absolutely curable, thanks to the research at St. Jude.

    Here's some interesting info.

    Each year, about 10,000 people in the United States receive a diagnosis of chronic lymphocytic leukemia. A decade ago, doctors thought chronic lymphocytic leukemia always affected older adults and rarely posed enough risk to warrant cancer treatments, so "watchful waiting" was the treatment of choice. Today, new laboratory tests, new medications and a new understanding of chronic lymphocytic leukemia have dramatically changed the rules for treatment of this type of leukemia. Doctors now know that chronic lymphocytic leukemia can behave aggressively in some people. Although watchful waiting is still the best option for some people, new medications are helping people diagnosed with a more aggressive form of chronic lymphocytic leukemia at a younger age.

    That's interesting to know I always thought it was something that could/would keep reoccurring even if you were able to get it 'cured'
