Leukemia is cancer of blood-forming tissues, including bone marrow. Many types exist such as acute lymphoblastic leukemia, acute myeloid leukemia, and chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

Many patients with slow-growing types of leukemias don't have symptoms. Rapidly growing types of leukemia may cause symptoms that include fatigue, weight loss, frequent infections, and easy bleeding or bruising.

Treatment is highly variable. For slow-growing leukemias, treatment may include monitoring. For aggressive leukemias, treatment includes chemotherapy that's sometimes followed by radiation and stem-cell transplant.

Leukemia is a malignant disease that causes the bone marrow to produce abnormal cancerous leukocytes that reduce the production of all types of blood cells.
From first hand experience with others it is incredibly painful to deal with when seeing someone you love suffer from this , likewise fans of WWE and those close to Roman Reigns are probably saddened that he has to give up his title due to this torturous disease. That his career has to come to a pause in order for him to fight for his life
