Case study:
Mariam is 8 years old and already knows what she wants to be when she grows up -

good grades, I know I can make it". In February 2005, soon after she experienced
increased bleeding and bruising, Mariam was diagnosed with Acute lymphoblastic

has been receiving chemotherapy and radiotherapy treatment since then – an almost
unbearable experience.
