Leukemia

Leukemia is more common in adults; however many cases are in children under the age of fifteen. Leukemia is the primary cause of cancer related death in kids. 3000 cases of childhood leukemia are diagnosed every year. ALL is the most common form of childhood leukemia.

This is very inspirational! Since the improvements of treatment most everyone under the age of fifteen survives leukemia. I had no idea that six kids get diagnosed everyday with this disease. I wish it could have had more information on leukemia and not so many pictures though. This was not my best source but the video was uplifting.
