Hello my name is Jan,
on Dec. 27 my 28 year old son James was diagnosed with ALL. He has
since gone through round one of Chemo spending three weeks in this
hospital and this week has started round two, entering the hospital
on Monday and being released as a out patient on Tuesday.
James is divorced with two children ages 4 and 6. His ex wife has
let his 6 year old come to stay with him while he goes through this
which makes Daddy and son very happy.
It is amazing how rapidly your life changes when this happens in
your life. Our Children are our babies no matter what the age and I
am having a tough time with this so my doctor has advised me to find
a online support group to help me to cope with this along with
giving me some anti depressents to help me out a lot.
It seems that ALL is not common James age group so he has not had
much luck finding other young adults to talk to about this on line.
Thank You for listening to me.....I could actually rattle on and on
as Im sure you understand.
~Jan
