She has leukemia
Leukemia is a form of cancer that occurs in the blood cells. The bone marrow makes too many white blood cells, and sometimes these cells don't work right because they keep growing when they are supposed to stop, and grow faster than other cells. Over time, the cancer cells take up too much space, so there is no room for healthy white and red blood cells.

Yes; there are no glaring factual errors. Janice's explanations about what tests were performed and her chemotherapy were accurate.
A number of organizations offer information about leukemia:
*The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society (http://www.leukemia.org)
*National Cancer Institute (http://www.cancer.gov)
*The American Cancer Socity (http://www.cancer.org)
