What Is MyLeukemiaTeam?

MyLeukemiaTeam is a free online community for people living with leukemia and the people who care about them. Here, you can connect with others who truly understand, share your story, and find practical, medically reviewed information about symptoms, treatments, and research.

Receiving a diagnosis, whether recent or from years ago, can change everything. A diagnosis can feel overwhelming and isolating. It can shift plans, routines, and relationships — sometimes all at once. If you're here, chances are this isn't a group you ever asked to join.

But you are here. And so are we.

This is a place to find people who understand through lived experience — going to appointments, navigating side effects, waiting for results, having hard conversations, and celebrating small wins. At MyLeukemiaTeam, you can share as much or as little as you want. You can ask questions at 2 a.m. You can vent. You can celebrate. You can simply read medically reviewed articles and know you're not the only one.

MyLeukemiaTeam is built on trust, compassion, and real stories. When members show up for one another with honesty, encouragement, and practical advice, something powerful happens. Strangers become a circle of support.

You didn't choose this condition, but you don't have to go through it alone.

What Can You Do Here?

• Show up exactly as you are. Share updates in the Activity Feed, whether it's a question, a photo, a win, or a hard moment.
• Find trusted, medically reviewed information in our Resources to help you make informed decisions.
• Connect in Groups with people who understand what daily life with leukemia can look like.
• Meet others who share similar diagnoses, locations, or life stages.
• Ask questions and learn from real answers in the Q&A forum.

What's the Community Like?

This is a community grounded in empathy, respect, and real experiences. Members share personal stories, ask honest questions, and offer perspective to others walking a similar path.

We work to create a safe, supportive, and inclusive space where everyone feels comfortable speaking openly. That means listening without judgment, leading with kindness, and remembering there's a real person behind every post.

People come here from all over the world for different reasons: to ask, to learn, to compare, to share, to give back, or simply to read. However you show up, you belong here.
