22 year old sis AML diagnosis

My 22 year old sister has just this week been diagnosed with acute myeloid leukaemia. Is there anyone who can help me comprehend AML better and help me support my sister please 

  • Hello BabyQuinn7,

    I am sorry to hear about your sister's recent diagnosis at such a young age but she is lucky to have such a caring sister who wants to learn more about her condition to be able to support her. We have some in-depth information on our website on acute myeloid leukaemia which you can read here. I hope it will answer some of the questions you may have on AML. If you have any questions and live in the UK, our nurses are also available on this free number 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday from 9am to 5pm.

    If you want to connect with others on our forum who have had AML, you can read our most recent threads on the subject here and here. Do feel free to respond to these and share your story.

    I hope others will be along soon to share their experience of going through or supporting a loved one with AML.

    Best wishes,

    Lucie, Cancer Chat Moderator
