Acute myelogenous leukemia fighter

I am raising awareness about hematological malignancies this month.





Today, it's all about acute myelogenous leukemia. It's when your white cells divide endlessly. They aren't functional which makes you suspectible to infections. These cells also take up space in the bone marrow, causing your red blood cell counts and platelet counts to go down. This makes you tired and very prone to bleeding.

To everyone fighting leukemias, cancer isn't cute. But you are. Don't give up!
