Through such research, the
leukemia death rate has fallen 5.1 percent
over the past 20 years, and the survival
rates for leukemia have more than
doubled in the past 30 years from 14 to
42 percent, according to Leukemia
Society statistics.
Still, about 580 new cases of lymphoma,
the form of leukemia Onassis
suffered, were diagnosed in South CarDlina
in 1997. There are 20 patients
registered with the leukemia societv

program committee member.
"Many college-age student with
leukemia go into remission and are able
to graduate and pursue their careers,"
Pratt said.
