Hold on lemme copy and paste
Its a long one so:
Ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T) is a hereditary condition characterized by progressive neurologic problems that lead to difficulty walking and an increased risk of developing various types of cancer. Signs of A-T often develop in childhood. Children with A-T may begin staggering and appear unsteady (called ataxia) shortly after learning to walk. Most people with A-T will eventually need to use a wheelchair.
People with A-T have normal intelligence, but over time, they will develop slurred speech and have difficulty with writing and other tasks. Red marks called telangiectasias are caused by dilated capillaries (tiny blood vessels) and may appear on the skin and eyes as people get older. People with A-T also have a weakened immune system and are prone to infections. In addition, they appear to be particularly sensitive to ionizing radiation, such as x-rays, and have an increased risk of cancer.
About lymphocytes and lymphoblasts
Lymphocytes are made in the bone marrow, the spongy, red tissue in the inner part of the large bones. Lymphocytes are found in the blood, lymph nodes, and spleen. Healthy lymphocytes fight bacterial and viral infections. In people with ALL, new lymphocytes do not develop into mature cells, but stay as immature cells called lymphoblasts.
About ALL
When a child has ALL, the lymphoblasts fill the bone marrow and crowd out other normal cells, preventing the production of red blood cells (cells that carry oxygen to tissues), many other types of normal white blood cells (cells that fight infection), and platelets (cells that help blood to clot). If the bone marrow is not functioning correctly, the child may experience anemia, easy bruising, bleeding, or infection.
Anemia is from too few red blood cells. Anemia can lead to fatigue, irritability, sleepiness, paleness, shortness of breath, and a rapid heartbeat.Bruising or bleeding from injuries may occur more easily because the blood cannot clot normally when the platelet count is low.Infection may occur more often if the blood has too few normal white blood cells. Many types of white blood cells are needed to fight infections caused by different germs.
Children with ALL often experience the following symptoms or signs. Sometimes, children with ALL do not show any of these symptoms.
Frequent infections
A fever that doesn’t go away
Feeling weak and tired all the time
Bone pain
Swollen lymph nodes (in the neck, under the arms, and groin, for example)
Paleness
Bruising or bleeding easily
Difficulty breathing
Headache
Enlarged liver or spleen
