Eric Drew, a long-time resident of Los Gatos, was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) at age 35 in December 2002. Life, as Eric knew it, suddenly came to a halt. He was immediately admitted to Stanford Medical Center for extensive chemotherapy in order to save his life. His lifestyle, his career, and his relationships will never be the same.
ALL is typically a child’s disease, but in rare cases, it can suddenly strike adults, as is the case with Eric Drew. It is especially devastating as it can lead to death within several weeks of inception. By the time a victim discovers that he/she is ill, they can literally be days away from dying from this terrible and rare form of Leukemia cancer. ALL is very rare and much more deadly and difficult to cure in adults than it is in children.
