My mind is having difficulty wrapping itself around allowing affected cells to travel through my blood to all parts of my body, and waiting until tumors form to treat. Can anyone explain the logic in this?

During treatment has anyone been able to travel? We are just at the beginning but I feel like we can't do anything or plan. It's 7 days of chemo in cancer center, then blood work twice a week!

Any Young Adults With ALL Who Have Had A Bone Marrow Transplant?
My 24 year old son was diagnosed with ALL just over a year ago. He just underwent a bone marrow transplant (haploidentical) from his brother, down at Dana Farber.
