can an everyday nose bleed be a sign of leukemia?

I dont really know how to start, I am very worried but today i received a call from my dad and he sounded very worried. he told me hes been bleeding everyday at least ones or twice a day. he said he cant really work because he doesnt know when the bleeding its going to ocurr. my dad said he has type A Anemia , i dont really know how bad that type of anemia is but what got me most worried was that he said he is afraid he may have Leukemia... deep inside i feel like he knows he has leukemia but he just dont want to worrie me... my questions is
IS IT POSSIBLE THAT THIS BLEEDING HE HAS BEEN HAVING IS LEUKEMIA????

Is his nose dry- is he using saline spray several times a day?
I guess- just rule out the obvious first.

Is he on a blood thinner? Coumadin? Any medication that could make you bleed easier?

Has he lost weight?

Hi:  Bleeding continuously to the point that your father cannot work is surely a concern.
It is not necessarily Leukemia, but if you think your father knows what is wrong then ask him to be honest with you.  If he does not really know the problem, then take him to a doctor for a full exam.
     I do have Leukemia, and I do not experience nose bleeds.  I bruise very easily, and have other problems.  I am however on medication for it.
    I pray your father does well, and gets the care he needs.
