No, it is not contagious.
The main precaution you need to take is to make sure that you don't expose your grandfather to infections, colds, etc. Pets can bring things in from outside too. Make sure your grandfather is protected, because his immunities will be lowered.
Best wishes.

No, dear, no form of cancer is contagious.
You don't need to take any "precautions" because unlike HIV/AIDS, you cannot get cancer from coming into contact with the blood of someone with cancer.

No it is not unless it is Aids then you need to wear gloves everytime you clean up any type of body fluid. Aids is a form of blood cancer since it can be transmitted through the blood. My prayers go out to you and your family.

Definitely not ! He has leukemia. By the way, it is inherited . All you have to do is make his last few days on earth as happy and comfortable for him. Give him all the tender loving care you all can afford to give him. Pray with him. Give him touch massage it will comfort him. Your presence is enough to make him feel a little better.
