D.J. is
Blood Cancer United

I was diagnosed with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APML) on February 5, 2025. My story is still being written, but so far it has been scary and quite the roller coaster ride, including a 38-day hospital stay with 28 days of chemo. I am not sure where this is going to take me, but I am grateful for the people who are going to help me along the way.
