After 3 weeks of going to the doctor, the mind was made that the doctors were wrong. On November the 14th, 4 year old Skyler Keener and family find out he has leukemia. Skyler was to start chemotherapy the following day and then on for the next 2 to 3 years.
Skyler has ALL (Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemiathis) it's one of two types of leukemia and is known to be the more treatable leukemia.
Skyler is a fighter, and through positive thoughts and prayers he WILL fight through this.
ALL is a type of leukemia that starts from white blood cells in the bone marrow, the soft inner part of bones. It develops from cells called lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell central to the immune system, or from lymphoblasts, an immature type of lymphocyte.
About eight or nine out of 10 adults achieve remission after treatments, but many relapse, which lowers the overall cure rate to 30% to 40%. So even with remission, post-induction therapy is needed to prevent relapse. It involves cycles of treatment over two to three years. Usually, the drugs are different than the drugs used in induction therapy. The goal is to completely rid the body of leukemia cells that have not been found by common blood or marrow tests. As an added note, with kids the success rate is much higher than adults.
Skyler's Parents Nick & Kaydee Keener Would Like To Thank You All For The Support & Prayers. If you kind people can help its so greatly appreciated!!!!
