How can I tell someone that I might have leukemia?
The only way to tell if you have leukemia is to visit the doctor for a exam. Leukemia is cancer of the blood cells. It starts in the bone marrow, the soft tissue inside most bones. Bone marrow is where blood cells are made. When you have leukemia, the bone marrow starts to make a lot of abnormal white blood cells, called leukemia cells.
