James, Yes, there have been a few cases of spontaneous remission from
leukemia.  Unfortunately, ;these patients often succumb from other
diseases.  First things first, though.  You didn’t say what kind of
leukemia he has, and how it was diagnosed. Secondly, a remission
cannot be determined from just a CBC –one needs to look at the bone
marrow, too (at least!).  Hope he continues to do well! H2

    Dear James . . .

    I have written a book entitled All Healing Is Through GOD.

    Your father most assuredly knows what’s in my book, perhaps without
    reading it.

    Why do we question GOD’s Healing Powers?

    Why can’t we except "the good news" and reject and change the "bad news"?

    My book is about Living not dying.

    I’d like to send you and anyone else on this list a "free, no obligation
    copy, not even postage", anywhere in the world.

    The "Truth is . . . ALL HEALING IS THROUGH GOD. always . . . every time.

    Love  Saul Steinberg 16363 Cammi Lane Ft Laud., FL 33326 or call 305-389-8076

    PleaSE e mAIL OR SLOW MAIL with zip so your book can be sent immediately.

    Hi Howard,
    A spontanuos remission i s always a possibillity.it´s almost impossible to
    tell unless you specify the type of leuchemia tour father suffers from. A
    low hemoglobin is nott nesseserly a indication of leuchemia, in his age
    (78) a desease named Myelodysplastic Syndrom might cause a distinct drop
    of hemoglobin i blood. MDS is normaly treated by blood transfusions. I
    have myself MDS and have had a stem cell transplant.
    Do come back by direkt e-mail for further information.

    Hi Lennart:

    I certainly agree that spontaneous remissions are always possible.  I
    also have MDS.  Last summer, my platelets were at 35,000, my WBC below 3.
     Without any formal medication or transfusions, my platelets are now over
    100,000 and my WBC in the low 4′s.  My doctor considers me to be in a
    form of remission from the refractory anemia, but wouldn’t dare credit
    the Chinese herbalist who treated me with herbs for six months in early
    ’95.
    Hope you are well.
