Can Elevation Of CLL After Remission Be Predicted?

My husband has CLL and has been in remission for 2 years after 6 months of chemo. Now it is slowly elevating again. Can a person predict how fast it will increase after remission. My husband was diagnose in 2008 and he was 53 years of age. The doctor had said at the beginning he would have 6 to 8 years to live .Is that true with his cancer and his age when he was diagnosed.
