Five former patients cured from acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL), four women and one man, have six healthy children: three girls and three boys. The children were born in the period from 13 to 24 years since the beginning of the disease, and five to 16 years after therapy cessation. The treatment of the patients lasted eight to nine years.
