Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is being treated for a rare form of leukemia, and the basketball great said his prognosis is encouraging.
The NBA’s all-time leading scorer was diagnosed last December with chronic myeloid leukemia, he told The Associated Press on Monday.











































CML is characterized by excess Myeloblast. It’s 5-year survival rate is 53,3%. I don’t know if we can meet Abdul Jabbar in 2014 or not. But, I hope he will survive. He must be a strong man. He will get through this.
