Donna, I can only speak for AML.
While hospitalized, during the first week, my oncologist had me sign the disability form she had filed out and told me SS disability was automatically approved. I was receiving disability benefits before I got out of the hospital.

Thank you dear.hope for the best.go day by day,you will have good days and bad days.

I have CML and was approved for long term disability in about 90 days. My disability is through a private insurance company which I got through my employer. It will continue to pay me till I reach full Social Security age. The advantage for me is it’s a lot more than Social Security would pay because it’s based on my income. My employer insurance company said I had to apply for Social Security disability as well because that would help them not to have to pay as much. I am in the process of doing that. It’s been a very long process and I am working with the insurance companies attorneys. my husband who does not have leukemia went through an attorney for disability he has a brain tumor. He used a company called Morgan and Morgan they got it done very quickly and they took all the stress off him. The cost was 25% of his first check, which is backdated to the day he applied it was definitely worth the money.

Thanks for the reply Arthur. I Appreciate it 🙏 for you

They did one on me when my blood work had a high count of white blood cells.
