My husband is on chemo in the hospital and he has aml would like to hear other people that have or had dealt with it.

That must have been an awful conversation. I'm glad he's feeling well. Do you have a plan in place yet? I know with the holiday's around the corner it can take some time. Please let us know how things go. Ann (Blood-Cancer,.com Team member)

@Angie Netterville sorry to have taken so long. Yes, the blood issue he had, sometimes develops into leukemia, hence the new specialist.

Plan? What kind of plan?

Wanted to also echo in ... as mentioned a plan can look different for everyone. The conversation of a plan, whatever that involves should be with a supportive medical team. The transparency should all be on the table for the wants and needs to make this all make sense—wishing you the very best!
