Answer 1

how do you know that its leukemia? you better go to the hospital and make sure, and if it was, you better get treatment for it, or its going to get worse, and fatal.

Answer 2

First of all, have you had a DOCTOr test you and diagnose you? Make sure that you do that before you do anything. Don't rely on symptoms and the internet. You have to have a doctor diagnose you. If you have been properly assessed and this is the result. Hun then you need to tell your parents. It sounds bad at home and I feel aful for you. YOur parents still love you no matter and you will need their support. They may come to a huge reality thatlife is presious and all the fighting is feeble and awaste of time. You have to tell them. You will need all the support you can get. there are diff. forms of lukimia and stages. They have come a long way with treatments. YOu could need a bone marrow donor, so this is exactly why you need to tell your parents, cause if you have been diagnosed with this, then you need to start the search for a donor just in case, as soon as possible. I wish you luck hun and a long life. I will say a prayer for you.

Answer 3

Really sorry to hear about this. Calm down though, the 2 people i have ever known to have lukemia have both survived and now lead a healthy lifestyle.

Everything will be ok, i urge you to tell your friends and go back to hospital were they may tell your parents for you.

They will also begin your treatment.

Don't worry about anything the doctors will look after you and theres people to help you through this mentally with your parents.

Sorry to hear about this.

If you want to talk mail me.

Answer 4

There is no way for anyone here on YA to tell you what awaits you in the future. Some people survive leukemia, and some don't.

  The exact form of cancer that you have as well as the treatment you receive will determine the outcome.

   Try to keep your chin up and go get medical attention pronto!!

   I wish you the best of luck and strenght to get you through this rough period.

Answer 5

First of all: I am so sorry you have to go through this.

Secondly, I do think you should tell your parents, but I wouldn't move back in with them unless you feel that they are stable and calm enough to support you in such a frightening and hectic time in your life. I would choose a hospital you have confidence in, and live with those who you completely trust and love. With everything you have to worry about, your home life needs to be completely stable.

Your prospective recovery rate depends on what type of lukemia you have, so talk to your doctor. I would encourage you to seek medical treatment quickly, but make sure you pick a doctor and hospital that suits you as a person. Also, you may want to join a support group (online or otherwise) who can help you cope.

Answer 6

how did you find out without your parents bring at the hospital you would of been ill before  they do blood tests i hope your telling the truth as it's not a nice thing to talk about not on here anyway there are lots of support out there

Answer 7

it sounds llike you are not going to get the care or the sympathy from your parents that you need right now.  so i think if you are getting love an a non-abusive environment from your friend and her family, stay there... but call your parents.  they need to know, as do your friends.  leukemia is highly treatable if taken care of right away. but the treatment might make u feel weak, and u need someone dependable to help u get thru that... and yes, u need to go to the hospital asap!!  keep god in your prayers, and he will be there for you if all else fails.  good luck hun

Answer 8

Awww

i feel so bad for you

how old are you?

i would suggest to go to he hospital you know they will treat you right and help you through it you might wanna tell your parents but dont go back to them and tell your friends and maybe her parents cause they can help you get to the hospital and stuff

i hope you have the best of luck!!

btw  how did you get it?
