Wow! John. 
You have come a long way!!!
Were you in a trial?
I have been fighting cml for 11 years.  I started on gleevec.  Then had to go 
on tasigna.  Tasigna didn't work at all so I went on sprycel.  Now after almost 
6 years I'm starting over again.  
Staying positive. 

Prayers & Blessings Jeanie 18's 🐠🐠
