Many children with leukemia become completely cured (long term sustained remission of the disease for the rest of their lives), while others, unfortunately, succumb to the disease.

Chemotherapy is the mainstay of treatment, but it has been supplemented successfully by meditative techniques in which children visualize their healthy cells attacking the cancerous ones. Significant research has demonstrated the benefit of using this combination, rather than just chemotherapy, alone.

What is the chances of living with chronic leukemia for life if you 64 years of age?

If you have leukemia, you WILL be living with it "for life", no matter how long your life happens to be. That said, there are some excellent treatments for leukemia that have extended your expected lifetime by years. (We haven't had them available for long enough to say "decades", but that's certainly possible.) In any event, the newer treatments, in many cases, will let you live long enough to die of something entirely unrelated.
