Are Low RBCs And High WBCs Indicative Of Leukemia?

My mom was admitted into the hospital after having bronchitis for about a week. Her red blood cell counts are low and her white blood cell counts are extremely high. She is jaundiced and on oxygen. They wanted to do a blood transfusion, but they said they can t because antigens in her blood will attack the donor blood. They are doing a bone marrow biopsy also. Could this really be leukemia?
