Guest guest Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 Hey Everyone: I was diaignosed in 05, that is when I joined the group. My story with CML is coming out very good on the other side. I had a BMT in 07 and currently I am CML and GVHD free and back at work. I am truly fortunate to be coming out the other side of this process. I have a question to present to the group. My Dad called this week, he has been diaignosed with CML and is starting treatment with Gleevec. Has anyone heard of Families with numerous family members with CML? I was told as I was being treated this is an enviromental disease, not genetic. I am just wondering if this has happened with anyone else being treated. Due to the vast knowledge I have from this group and my experiences, it was nice to tell him that CML is not a death sentence. Thank you all for your help. I have given him and his wife this site for information and support. I look forward to responses. Therese Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
