Killing Leuk A Story of The Courageous Journey of Faith of a Mother and Son Who Both Battled Leukemia

Logan was only nine when he was diagnosed with leukemia. The effects of his battle and untimely passing have caused shear grief to ripple through the Marre’s emotions each day. Sixteen years after Logan succumbed to the disease, his mother—Kelly Marre—was delivered the same diagnosis.

In this inspiring memoir, Kelly courageously welcomes readers into the dark seasons of grief and pain she experienced as a mother. Killing Leuk: The Courageous Journey of Faith of a Mother and Son Who Both Battled Leukemia is one woman’s battle to move forward and continue living when so much of her life has been taken from her. Through the loss of her son, her own diagnosis, chemotherapy, and a stem cell transplant, she continues to take steps forward. Kelly fights with everything she has to finally kill “Leuk,” a shortened form of the name of her ruthless disease.

Killing Leuk reopens wounds not quite healed in order to help others who may be experiencing the same sorrow. Survival through the anguish of illness and loss may seem impossible, but Kelly Marre compassionately shares her own story to provide you with a light of hope amid darkness.
