- On the day that I was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia I was certain I was dying.
20 years later I'm still here.
It is my hope that my cancer vlog connects to the people who need inspiration and hope.
There were days I wanted to give up and my leukemia story vlog is a peak into 20 years ago when I was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia. My treatment including the good days, bad days, worse days and the humor we infused throughout.
Then fast forward to today. My ordinary life that is extraordinary. This doesn't mean all of my days are happy and sunny, it doesn't even mean that I appreciate every day though I should. It means that I'm at a point where my cancer journey is a part of me rather than it defined me.
With Love,

Congratulations! Yes I can relate. I got AML in 2009 and spent 5 months living in the hospital because I had so many infections and high fevers. 6 months later I got an allogeneic bone marrow transplant and it obviously cured it but it was clinics and doctor appointments for the next 5 years. After they said I had leukemia all I could hear is blah, blah, blah after that. Similar to a 3 month nightmare. After a while I got use to my hospital family and pretty nurses that visited everyday. I kinda miss that part. Yes, I lost my closest childhood friend when he was only 15 years old from leukemia. That was 1966. Lots of great changes in treatment today. I was a guinea pig with new chemo at the time I had it and it worked.
I m Also AML PATIENT.
1.6 months before I got bone my transplant. Please give m contact no.
@@reshavdas2447 The nurses will have a training class you go to before the transplant and will tell you what to expect and what to do and what not to do. You will also receive much paperwork on Bone transplants from the hospital. I am a former patient but better to get all your information from transplant team. They can answer any questions you can think of. In the meantime don't worry about it. They will keep you well informed. Do exactly what they tell you to do and you'll survive. Similar to battlefield instructions from your commanding officers. They already know what you're in for.
thank you for shaing. I went to scotland in June and we were completely disconnected for 2 weeks! A complete blessing!
Your Story is what made you who you are today. Enjoy your disconnection Beth! You deserve it! Maybe we’ll get to see a Paddle Board Pilates video in the near future? 😉💜
Thank you for posting. I'm about 12 years out from my diagnosis, I thought I was going to die too. I had 2 sets of bilateral bone marrow biopsies, can you believe people expect you not to hurt after those?! I remember for at least a week I couldn't even walk on uneven ground without feeling like it was jarring it....Those are nightmare days for me to reflect on.... I'm glad you are still here :) Enjoy your time away!

Are u a stem cell transplant survivor or u just received chemotherapy
So why the BMB in the first place? Symptoms before? I know you'd had a CBC at least. You look fine, especially a 20 year survivor of AML!
The symptoms were fatigue, headaches and lots of bruising, all in a very short amount of time.
You asked fam to leave bc you didn’t want them to see you cry😞
It’s ok to show fears.
I just needed time to process and didn't want to see fear in their eyes at that moment.
