Oh my GOSH I am so sorry. Even though I don't know you, I'll pray for you. Don't think about the chances of you dying. Ask the question, 'What are the chances of me living?' and go for it. Just do what the doctors say, even though it'll be very hard, and you may get very sick. They know best. But don't be afraid to ask questions, either. Get lots of support from family and friends. I think the survival rates of leukemia vary, depending on what type of leukemia it is, and how healthy your are to begin with. Chances are the struggle for your survival will be a long painful battle but if you live it'll all have been worth it in the end. Your family don't want to give you up:)

the chances of you LIVING are enough if you keep fighting and keep thinking positively. Pray to God.
Statistics mean nothing. People, especially young ones, can beat anything, against any odds. I really don't know the stats in your case, I know that if you believe in God and really pray, you can win this.
When my mom was diagnosed...I talked on the phone with a woman who told me she has survived cancer three times. It's very possible.

God bless you.

Your type, subtype and cytology has a lot to do with that. I do know it is very difficult to induce remission on a third occurence (the 2nd relapse).
If you can get into remission and go through transplant that may be something you want to consider

You are an incredible human with the spirit of a warrior. I cannot imagine your anxieties and supernatural strengths. You have endured unimaginable trauma to your young body and mind. No matter what anyone says on here we cannot take away your worries or painful treatments. I have not walked in your shoes to understand the complexity of this illness, but my spirit shares empathy with you.
You have a positive outlook on your situation and your spirit (God in you) has given this beautiful gift of looking on the bright side. It is hard to tell someone with a real illness to not be anxious, but my thoughts for you are to not worry so much about tomorrow. Try to think of the moment you are in and enjoy. You may already keep a journal. This would be helpful for you to get your thoughts out each day. This also allows the right brain side of you to become creative and spiritual. Reach out to someone else who needs your help. You have so much to offer. For such a young spirit, you have been given a gift of incredible encouragement for others.
If we all knew the potential we have inside of ourselves as you do there would be much less sadness, hopelessness and greed in this world.
