There are two phases of treatment for AML. The first phase is called induction therapy. The purpose of induction therapy is to kill as many of the leukemia cells as possible and induce a remission, a state in which there is no visible evidence of disease and blood counts are normal.
Bee Gees singer Robin Gibb died of kidney failure, not cancer as was widely reported, his son Robin John has said. The popstarâs son revealed: âIt wasnât the cancer that killed my father; those reports are wrong.
The idol whoâd earned more than $3 million by the age of 21 pulled in an income of only $7,755 two years before his death. Nevertheless, Gibb was attempting a comeback and working on an album when death intervened. Said his brother Barry a year afterward, âAndyâs problem wasnât drugs or alcohol. Tom Wolfeâs The Bonfire of the Vanities burned up the best-seller list. Robin Williams spun box office gold in Good Morning, Vietnam.
