White Blood book cover
White Blood.
Personal journeys with childhood leukaemia.
By Mel Greaves.

This book recounts experiences of childhood leukaemia presented from very different perspectives:

  • Introduction to Childhood Leukaemia
  • A Paediatrician's Journey 
  • A Scientist's Journey
  • A Child Psychologist's Journey
  • A Mother's Journey
  • A Family's Journey: The Child
  • A Family's Journey: The Mother

These individuals recount their personal experience with the disease. The book also includes paintings and drawings by the artist Susan Macfarlane from her Living with Leukaemia series.

The voices of a clinicians's compassion, a scientist's quest, a psychologist's empathy, a mother's heart-break and a family's struggle resonate through the book.

Head, Department of Pathology, The University of Hong Kong
