my friend has leukemia she has had radiation nowshe has all her hair bak and looks normal does mean remission?


Question:
she told me she had radiation and her hair fell out butnow her hair is very long and she is very frail and skinny does this mean remission

Answers:
Are you sure it wasn't a wig? The doctors do not talk about "remission" until she has been disease free for years. From the sound of it, she is probably in the middle of chemotherapy...also a good reason for her to be wearing a wig.

All you can do is pray for your friend, and try to be there for her when she needs you.
the radiation is why the hair went away not nessisarily the cancer...
