Our society also provides essential assistance for patients living with Blood Cancers such as Leukemia. Since these cancers affect how cells produce and function together, specialized protocols must be employed when administering chemotherapy and supportive therapies to patients suffering from these illnesses. The society ensures these processes occur smoothly while patients get prompt care, including chemotherapy as needed and supportive therapies as necessary.
