Our son who is 29 was just diagnosed with CML Leukemia. My husband served in Vietnam in the late 60 and was covered in Agent Orange. It appears from reading these messages that there are other Vietnam veterans whose children are being diagnosed with CML. Being such a rare disease especially in children too many of them seem to be from Vietnam Vets. Exactly how many of them are out there. The targeted drugs seem to be working but at an a co pay of $1800 a month. They are working on getting him financial help or discount through the pharmacy/drug company but they are saying this could be a life time cost. Anyone out there making any progress with getting help from the VA for this?
