I for one believe that Leukemia does have some sort of inherited

traits. From my dad grandads, uncle, and cousin, to me. CML or

CLL. My dads cousin and I were both 34 when we were diagnosed with

CML, my Great Grandad I found out, had both CML and CLL. This is all

on my dads moms side of the family, not one generation missed<My

grandmothers dad cml/cll, brother cll, nephew cml, granddaughter

cml>. I think it is MUCH MORE than just a COINCIDENCE! I didn't grow

up in the same areas and wasn't around the same chemical compounds

and all that jazz. But I do have their GENES! AND THIER CML!

So....just some thoughts to ponder. So yep.....I've had CML for

almost 3 years, I inherited it from my dads side of the family!

They say it isn't heriditary. But my genes beg to differ. I go to

MDACC, and well they are some of the best. Guess they just haven't

looked into my DNA good enough yet!
