Welcome

Hi,

Welcome to my blog. I'm excited to share my journey with you. I'm in the midst of publishing a book on my experiences with multiple myeloma. It has been an insane journey the past few years.
I know there are many of you with the same concerns, apprehensions, anxieties; there are many who may not know what multiple myeloma means....

Multiple myloma in  a nut shell is a cancer- yep another cancer on the map of absurdity....
A cancer that affects the blood and bones, A cancer that can bring about havoc with a simple break or fracture to a bone. A cancer that  brings on anemia. A plain old pest....

However with this said; I'm living my life to the fullest. I'm so in following the YOLO
term -You Only Live Once.

Hope you enjoy my book and my new movement- "Mad About Myeloma"

Blessings!

Y

I was in the process of working with a top myeloma foundation to present my book to readers that could possbly relate to my experi...

My Story is Your Story.... Or Is it?

Okay, it's clear those with mm have experienced different journeys than others, whether doctor care, medicine faux paus, infections, lesions, renal issues, anemia, Thrombosis, or no signs of  lingering harsh effects at all. My pain in the $#^ with myeloma as of this Tuesday April 23 is just the slight uncomfortable discomfort ever so lightly in the lower chest area, like someone gave me a hard push in the chest, or the slight pain at the lower back, where the lesion is being watched once a year with hopes it doesn't act up and calling for treatment. My only treatment thus far has been radiation at the chest sternum, and me hoping my skin turns back to normal, well 2 1/2 years in, I've realized this isn't going to happen! Radiation burn is just that a horrible burn! Health coverage - no issues yet, but than again I'm not on medicine so not sure of the bull that comes with having to be medicated for a specific amount of time. Bone marrow transplan...
