Six years of living with blood cancer
Today marks the day when, six years ago, my life changed forever as I was diagnosed with blood cancer.  That night I experienced the first of many sleepless, tearful nights.  Or was the day that changed my life the 28 April 2017 – the day I got sick, was admitted to hospital, and remained severely unwell with pneumonia for several weeks? Both dates are forever etched in my mind.  The gap between…

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a cancer affecting the white blood cells. Radiation therapy, chemotherapy, and stem cell transplants are possible treatments for CLL. CLL treatment is essential because it can help improve symptoms and increase life expectancy. In India, there are one million new cases of chronic lymphocytic leukemia diagnosed every year, according to an article written by Apollo Hospitals. According to cancer statistics, one in 155 men and one in 260 women in England suffer from chronic lymphocytic leukaemia. Leukemia affects a large part of the world's population. Leukemia is diagnosed by acute and chronic illnesses caused by exposure to radiation, poor lifestyle choices and environmental factors. According to the 2021 Leukemia& Lymphoma Society study, men are affected by leukemia at a rate of approximately 36.5%. Men are diagnosed with and die of leukemia more often than women. Additionally, leukemia affected people of all genders and ages, with 474,519 cases worldwide in 2020, according to GLOBOCAN 2021 statistics. According to the same source, leukemia was one of the leading causes of death in the world in 2020.

There is a reason why I continue to wear a mask in public. While being immunocompromised does mean that I have a greater concern from dying from a COVID infection than most in the general public, I have a much greater concern from living with a long-COVID infection.

It’s been super cool and all that my leukemia is back and rearing it’s ugly ass head. I can count on one hand the times I’ve had serious infections and three of those have been before my health tanked drastically. I’ve developed an extreme infection over the past 24 hours and holy hell does it hurt. So I can now add a 4th infection to this. But it makes a lot of sense and my appointment with my onco next month is gonna be fuuunnnn. Been looking at a trial that seems somewhat promising though so?? We shall see.

D-Day: Defying Definition by Diagnoses Seven Years On
Seven years ago today,  I was diagnosed with a form of Blood Cancer that has tried to destroy my identity and define who I am. Today, on my personal D-Day, I can report I have been slowly learning to defy those definitions and cling onto hope. My identity is not merely a diseased and damaged individual.  I am still in an ongoing battle to live beyond such labels, and it is far from easy. This…

One Year Farther Away -- One Year Closer
Today is my three-year end-of-treatment anniversary. The photo on the left was taken on the first day of treatment, November 5, 2019. The photo on the right was taken on the last day of treatment, April 1, 2020. If I can continue to survive for another seven years without disease progression, I may never need treatment again. 
Chemotherapy was not unpleasant for me, for which I am grateful. Oh, sure, there was that 4-day hospital stay between the 4th and 5th cycles of treatment, but I survived that. CLL makes managing life a challenge, particularly as I am more susceptible to infections of any kind. I am grateful for my close friends who check in on me and who understand the mental health challenges of needing to isolate when I would rather not.

Meet Hunter. She has incurable leukemia (a subset of chronic lymphocytic leukemia), along with Ankylosing Spondylitis. "I use a wheelchair for pain, as chemo has weakened my bones and the AS is fusing my spine. I also have significant fatigue from everything," Hunter told BuzzFeed.
Hunter recently caught the attention of over 3.5 million people when she took to TikTok to share an awful experience she had ordering food from Grubhub. "When people talk about disability discrimination, this is kind of what they're referencing. Yesterday, I ordered some food from Grubhub, and when my food was delivered, I received this message from my driver. ...
My driver, in retaliation for receiving a 26% tip — which he did not like — left my food in the middle of my driveway," she explains in her TikTok.
“I am in a wheelchair, so I couldn't go get my food in the middle of my driveway. I ended up having to wait an hour until my caregiver came home so I could eat. When I approached Grubhub about the issue, they decided it wasn't that big of a problem and didn't do a whole lot. So I am hoping we can spread some awareness here as to how this is discriminatory and hopefully things like this never happen again," she concluded in her TikTok.

Staging of Leukemia
Tumblr media
Unlike most solid tumors, leukemia is not classified by stage based on tumor size or spread. Different staging systems exist for each leukemia subtype. Overall, leukemia staging consists of multiple criteria including the type, count, and degree of maturation of specific blood cells, as well as the presence of enlarged lymph nodes.
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) staging is based on the type and maturity of affected blood cells. The two main types of ALL are B-cell and T-cell ALL. Each type is staged according to the maturity of the blood cells. For example, B-cell ALL is classified as early pre-B, pre-B, common, or mature B-cell. T-cell ALL is classified as pre-T or mature T-cell.
There are two staging systems for acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The French-American-British (FAB) system consists of eight stages based on blood cell type and maturity. Stages M0 to M5 refer to cancers that develop from immature white blood cells like myeloblasts and promyelocytes. Stage M6 refers to acute erythroid leukemia, where malignancy originates from immature red blood cells, whereas stage M7 develops from megakaryoblasts, or platelet-forming cells. Alternatively, the World Health Organization (WHO) stages AML based on prognostic factors such as genetic abnormalities, comorbidities, and cellular differentiation.
Doctors can stage chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) using the Rai or the Binet system. The Rai system is used in the United States. Comprising five stages, it assesses the severity of CLL based on three criteria: lymphocyte count, enlargement of lymph nodes, liver, or spleen, and development of blood disorders like anemia or thrombocytopenia. Rai stage 0, or low-risk CLL, is characterized by high lymphocyte count only, whereas stage 1 also includes enlarged lymph nodes. The liver or spleen may become enlarged in stage 2. Anemia and thrombocytopenia may develop in stages 3 and 4, or high-risk CLL.
In Europe, the Binet staging system focuses on enlargement of lymphoid tissue. Stage A describes CLL cases where some lymph nodes are swollen, stage B includes swollen lymphoid tissues in more than three areas, and stage C - like high-risk CLL in the Rai system - features anemia or thrombocytopenia.
The staging system for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is composed of phases that describe the number of immature white blood cells, also known as blasts, found in the bone marrow and bloodstream. Chronic CML is the earliest stage, where blasts account for less than 10 percent of total blood cells and patients present mild symptoms. In accelerated CML, blast growth progresses rapidly and results in more severe symptoms, such as weight loss. The most aggressive stage of CML is the blast phase, where blasts account for at least 20 percent of all blood cells and patients exhibit symptoms as severe as those with AML.
Doctors conduct various tests to accurately stage leukemia. They use diagnostic methods such as blood tests, bone marrow biopsy, and imaging modalities. A complete blood count, or CBC, determines the number of different cells in the bloodstream, and plays an important role in evaluating the severity of leukemia. Similarly, a bone marrow biopsy, taken from the patient’s hip bone, allows doctors to detect and identify the type of leukemia cells present in the bone marrow. Imaging modalities like x-rays and positron emission tomography (PET) scans can locate leukemia metastases in other parts of the body.
