A member asked:
Is it possible for a all leukemia cancer patient who has neutropenia after chemotherapy and have sepsis to surrive?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes it is possible: But this is a critical situation that needs proper care ( and some good luck). Sure it is possible, but there is always a chance for unexpected complications, and a failure of the patient to respond favorably. And if you believe in a deity, prayer can't hurt either.
