Overview

You're a young 24-year-old, three months out of college, working as a Systems Engineer for a company, at a salary you named. You're engaged to be married in a month, closing on a house and on top of the world, and that world has just been turned upside down. You've just been diagnosed with cancer - leukemia. Now what? So much uncertainty. In fact, the only certainty is just how uncertain everything is. But wait. Maybe there's a reason for all this. Maybe some underlying purpose. Maybe this was all part of some greater plan. This is the personal account of one man's journey from being diagnosed with Leukemia and how he survived this disease. It's an account of perseverance, fear, sorrow, loss, hope, near death, gratitude, perspective, and it's riddled with sex, drugs, rock n' roll, and speckled with a bit of science, education, medicine, and research.

Ryan Woelfel is an incredible human being and has an extraordinary story to tell. As a member of his leukemia and transplant team, Ryan is my hero. His book, Leukemia - From Diagnosis to Winning the Battle, takes the reader on his journey of survival that no one should have to endure, especially a recently graduated 61/2 year college student enjoying the time of his life with the love of his life. After reviewing his records, I was reminded of the medical facts of his leukemia diagnosis and chances for survival. Sometimes it is easier and less painful for me as a physician to keep to the impersonal statistics. The fact is Ryan Woelfel should not have survived. He did. I thank God and we are all better for it.Robert Brian Berryman, M.D.
