My dad is 79 and was just diagonized with CLL and I am sick to my stomach. I live in Florida and he lives in NYC and I wish as an only child I could drop everything and go be with him. My mom is elderly too and she is the only person with him. He is getting ready to do 4 CT Scans. He believes his lymph nodes are enlarged. Other than that he has no other symptoms that he can tell. He only found out something was wrong when he had a CBC and his white blood cells were higher than normal.
