A member asked:
Do adults who survived a.l.l. at younger ages have a shorter life expectancy? if so, how long is the average?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
May be, some: We are only 50 years or so since this cancer(all) became curable. There are some late complications which make us suspect that the ultimate age may be shortened by a few years. But i would not worry about it for another 10-20 years as most folks are doing fine in their 40s to 50s.
