seafalconsfan Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 My mother was diagnosed with APL an acute leukemia last november. It is a difficult cancer because of the rapid onset, however great progress has been made in cancer reasearch in the past decade and as long as he doesn't have a rare form that doesn't respond well to meds, he should be able to knock it into remission. His age and overall health will benefit him greatly. My mother is 59, was near dead when she was diagnosed, and now she looks better than she has in years (changed her diet and lifestyle).

chazh Posted February 14, 2008 Author Share Posted February 14, 2008 Hopefully as he is a fit young man he will pull through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loowe Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 That's really terrible. I've been watching Kenechi Udeze since he came out of college. He's great off the field contributing to all these funds and charities, and to see that happen to some of his caliber is really sad. Let's hope he pulls through.
