I’ve been told that I should write a book. My Doctors have told me that I am one of the longest living survivors of this insidious disease that for so long was a death sentence.
I decided to initiate a blog to tell my story and maybe bring hope and health to those newly diagnosed with CML or one of the varieties of Leukemia or commiserate with those who are currently living with the disease for the short and long term.
My name is Jeff Keenan and I have been dealing with CML for 27 years. My blog will tell you my story of this roller coaster ride of emotional and physical ups and downs, scares and suffering, triumphs and elation, tears and joy.
I hope that my experiences and their outcomes will help those in need of answers to the long term management and life living with this disease.
I will chronicle my journey in great detail through my blog from beginning to my current situation…27 years as of May, 23rd 1996. You never forget the day when an Oncologist tells you that you may only have one to two years to live.
I am new to blogging and hope to master the concept as well as be able to discuss and give helpful advice, good vibes, and pertinent info to all.
