I personally have a 4-year old cousin who has Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. I took the time to look up this travesty and I have found that most who are subjected to Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia are between the ages of 4-12. The approx. number of children who are sentenced to this disease is about 2,000. Only 15% of people die from A.L.L. That means 85% of people lived through this. Chemo-therapy, although it makes you lose your hair, does help remove A.L.L. or contain any other types of cancer until the removing (if removable). A.L.L. is characterized by excess lymphoblasts. A.L.L. causes damage and death by crowding out normal cells in the bone marrow, and by spreading to other organs. 'Acute' refers to the undifferentiated, immature state of the circulating lymphocytes ("blasts"), and to the rapid progression of disease, which can be fatal in weeks to months if left untreated. I HOPE THIS HELPED -STEPHEN B.
• In 2009, about 460 children under 15 years are expected to die from leukemia.

The death rate for children with leukemia varies depending on the type of leukemia and other factors. Overall, the survival rate for children with leukemia has significantly improved over the years with advances in treatment. Approximately 80-90% of children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, the most common type of leukemia in children, can be cured with current treatments.
Acute Leukemia is the most common in children. 98%
Yes, the most curable form of leukemia is acute lymphoblastic leukemia. It also happens to be the most common form of leukemia in children.
I do not think she has leukemia. But she is doing a wonderful job with her children
george w bush's mom had 5 children: george, Jeb, Neil, Marvin and Dorothy. Another younger sister, Robin, died from leukemia at the age of three in 1953.
Gingivitis is also one of the early signs of leukemia in some children
LEUKEMIA IS NOT EXTINCT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Many people have leukemia and many are also getting the disease!
3,800 children each year. 1 at the most, weird question
ALL leukemia is Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. ALL is a fast-growing cancer of the white blood cells. This form of cancer is more common in children than adults, although both can have it. As a childhood Leukemia survivor, I have to say that it is more likely to accure in children, and this type of Leukemia has the highest survival rate.
