Absolutely, yes! There are thousands upon thousands of leukemia patients (as well as those with other forms of cancer) who have made a complete recovery, many of whom were told they had little or even no chance of recovery. Never, ever just give up.

It has been proven that quite often, the patient's attitude can have a great impact on their recovery, so a positive attitude is crucial. That's not to say one shouldn't be realistic, but to have a positive attitude and to fight the disease can make all the difference.
