When you have leukemia, you're going to go be going to the hospital quite a bit for treatments. Depending on how bad it is, it varies from once or twice every week or so to a few times a week. Having a special diet will benefit in the longrun, seeing as there are vegetables and fruits with antioxidants that can prevent and help fight the cancerous cells. It's up to you how you lead your day-- it could either be nice and normal or you could be dramatic and mopey about it.

Hope I helped. You can always learn more on leukemia at sites such as Wikipedia.
