my sister was diagnosed with acute leukemia aml 2 weeks ago, she is an inactive jehovahs witness but has pure love & loyalty to Jehovah and wants no blood, she is currently hospitalized at Cedar Senai Hospital in Los Angeles, her hemoglobin is at 6, & her platlettes are very low, she needs 2 more weeks for her bone marrow to start producing healthy blood cells, is there any alternatives that will keep her cells stable? Please help, she is in good hands but she seems to get weaker every passing day, we are desperate and just want to make sure everything is being done to conserve her life now.
Any advise is completely appreciated!

I'm sorry to hear about your sister's illness. AML is, unfortunately, the worst kind of leukemia and the hardest to treat successfully without blood transfusion support. Nevertheless successful outcomes have been reported in the medical literature and for your sister to have a fighting chance the medical team need to respect her decision not to accept blood transfusion and work within that limitation. Here are three articles that might help them.

I am not a doctor but can tell you that if your body can start producing good stem cells from the bone marrow it can help replace the defective ones! I agree with previous post that this is most hard without blood and even stem cell transplants contain some blood, though some claim it does not. Please look into a natural botanical extract that has been medically proven to help increase stem cell production from the bone marrow. I have access to the medical published studies and know that more are being planned on being presented for publication at the International Stem Cell Research convention coming up in June. Please at least ask as it is still your decision how to treat yourself, as we all know from having the personal decision to go against the normal treatments. Please email me off line if you like or thru a response to this post. Here is a brief explaination as to why good stem cells are what are needed the most!
Adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a type of cancer in which the bone marrow makes abnormal myeloblasts (a type of white blood cell), red blood cells, or platelets.
Adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a cancer of the blood and bone marrow. This type of cancer usually gets worse quickly if it is not treated. It is the most common type of acute leukemia in adults. AML is also called acute myelogenous leukemia, acute myeloblastic leukemia, acute granulocytic leukemia, and acute nonlymphocytic leukemia.

Normally, the bone marrow makes blood stem cells (immature cells) that develop into mature blood cells over time. A blood stem cell may become a myeloid stem cell or a lymphoid stem cell. The lymphoid stem cell develops into a white blood cell. The myeloid stem cell develops into one of three types of mature blood cells:

• Red blood cells that carry oxygen and other materials to all tissues of the body.
• White blood cells that fight infection and disease.
• Platelets that help prevent bleeding by causing blood clots to form
