Research and treatment efforts for many diseases,
including Alzheimer's and breast cancer, have benefited from
additional funding resulting from having a "check-off box" placed on
the individual and corporate income tax returns. Leukemia, Lymphoma
and Myeloma are blood cancers originating in the bone marrow and
correlate with each other because of the unrestrained growth of the
cells and the parallel functions which they possess.
Leukemia, although more common in adults over the age of 64, is still
the leading cause of disease death of children under 15 yrs old, with
Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia (ALL) being the most common form of
Leukemia in children. Treatment advances for Leukemia have proven to
be prevalent in the survival rate over the years, with the survival
rate increasing from 4% in 1960 to 85% in 1999. Lymphoma involves two
particular forms including Non-Hodgkin, which is the fifth most
common cancer in the U.S. and Hodgkin Lymphoma, which mostly affects
adolescents and young adults. Myeloma occurs mostly in people over 60
yrs old with males having a 50% higher chance than females of being
diagnosed. Each year an estimated 106,200 people in the United States
are diagnosed with Leukemia, Lymphoma, or Myeloma. At the present
time, an estimated 670,950 Americans have blood cancers.
Approximately 57,500 Americans will die from these hematological
malignancies this year. In New York State alone, there are
approximately 6,600 people diagnosed with a blood cancer each year
and 3,500 people will succumb to this disease.
