HealthTree for Leukemia

Every story has the power to inspire.
When John was diagnosed with multiple myeloma, he had never even heard of the disease. Since then, he has endured chemotherapy, a stem cell transplant, relapse, radiation, CAR-T therapy, and countless challenges.
Yet through it all, he never stopped moving forward.
His story is a reminder that survivorship isn't always about "winning." Sometimes it's about choosing to get up one more time.
❤️ We'd love to feature more stories like John's.

🤔 Did you know that not every type of cancer has a routine screening test?
While screenings like mammograms and colonoscopies can help detect some cancers early, blood cancers such as leukemia, lymphoma, and multiple myeloma are often found in different ways, including routine blood work or by investigating persistent symptoms.
Knowing your body and staying up to date with recommended screenings can play an important role in your health.
❤️ Leave a heart if you found this helpful, and share it with someone who could benefit from learning more.
