What Are The Symptoms Of Final Stage Leukemia?
my friends grandpa is in the hospital with leukemia......he is 75 and only has one kidney.....they told him he had 3-6 months to live a month or two ago and now he has been hospitalized. He has had a fever on and off for twelve or so hours, and is having trouble urinating now. How much longer does he have? Are these the final stages?

Dear,
There is no detail about what type of leukemia your friends father has. Prognosis depends upon the type of leukemia. Some leukemia's are indolent and those people have a nearly normal life.
