Swimming star Ikee launches website; says leukemia treatment proceeding smoothly

Poor woman. It is a terrible thing to happen to anyone, regardless of age or ability. I hope she can survive this and live a long life.

I wish her best.

Leukemia treatment is harsh, like many other cancer treatments involving big doses of chemo and radiation. Sometimes the treatment is worse than the disease itself.

I hope she gets through this.

Good on her for sharing her experience and raising awareness that cancer can strike at any age.

Here's hoping for a speedy and complete recovery for an inspirational star.
