I am writing today to ask you to join me in support of millions of people whose lives are affected by cancer. As a member of the Lance Armstrong Foundation’s Peloton Project, I am raising funds and awareness for the Foundation and their mission of enhancing the quality of life for those living with, through, and beyond cancer.

WHAT IS LEUKEMIA?
Leukemia is a type of cancer of the blood and the bone marrow (the inner part of the bones where blood cells are made). With leukemia, two things happen. First certain blood cells become abnormal. Second, the body keeps producing large numbers of these abnormal cells.
CML is one type of leukemia. "Chronic" means that it is a slow-acting cancer that may take years to progress. "Myeloid" means that the type of abnormal blood cell being overproduced is a type of white blood cell called a myeloid cell. So, chronic myeloid leukemia is a slow-acting cancer that make the body produce too many cancerous myeloid white blood cells. |
