Age: 5
Diagnosis: ALL

What do you know about ALL?
The cancer makes more and more cells in your bones and you can get infections. You have to have lots of needles and take lots and lots of medicine to help keep the cancer away. I have to take medicine until I'm 7 1/2.

I have to go to clinic a lot, but not as much in maintenance (treatment). In maintenance, there aren't as many needles or infections.

Dan Zanes, the Ramones, the Nutcracker, Feist
