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.

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.
