My friends had fainted and had a slight seizure a few days ago and the today was vomiting black stuff, what can that be? he has had leukemia in the past

Usually : Usually when people are vomiting black stuff, they are vomiting blood. With a history of leukemia and an episode that was probably a faint with some seizure-like movements what comes to mind is a GI bleed with fainting from anemia. Your friend should get to a doctor fast.

Agree with Dr. D: Vomiting black stuff is serious even without a history of leukemia and doubly so with the health history of your friend. He ought to see a doctor or go to the emergency room of a nearby hospital.
