When the Fire Dies

I'm really blessed to still be able to live life to the fullest! My book "Another face of multiple myeloma" is in the works of being promoted, my company Spitfir Productions is nicely being upstarted, Mae's Breath Foundation is making great leigh-way in lung cancer awareness, etc, etc...

I don't know what would happen if my fires goes out; as it's the thread that is truly keeping me alive.
I have a weekly meeting that takes place every Tuesday, and I don't know what it is that gets me so uptight and not nervous but annoyed by presenting at this meeting- but today I wrote the letters-
UCDI- You Can Do It...
to remind me of the light that is in me, and no matter my anticipation weekly tested that I'm doing despite my fears, anxiousness, or what have you.

I may not be perfect with this task, but God only knows and shows me everyday I'm truly a living Spitfire because I'm doing, learning, and achieving in so many other factors of my life.
Who can ask for more....

Screw Myeloma- how dear it tells me how to live!
Cheers to life!

Pivot

The last few years have been interesting. Life has been busy, and this has taught me different perspectives on living with multiple myeloma. I wanted to expand on this on another point, but lately, I recalled when I thought my time here on Earth was near. I was deathly ill and it was clear that death was my fate and in this way. I survived that situation but it then expanded my walk further with multiple myeloma. After an arduous treatment, I met lower numbers and back-to-back 0 spike, and BMX showed MRD...REMISSION-YES! There has been a lot of pivoting in thinking one way and then having something else happen. It's clear there's no rhyme to reason; However, there's faith but that is even questionable for some folks. I know who questions faith- right? Some do and rightfully so when you don't have control over the situation. It feels okay in the moment to question. Pivot with multiple myeloma is about rethinking living. Yes, it is a drag to be on treatment, and th...

Childrens Book on Multiple Myeloma

I've found I can talk with an adult all day about life with a multiple myeloma diagnosis, some get it, some are still clueless...it is what it is. Multiple Myeloma is relatable for those who are on their own journey, or those who have had a family or friend who was taken from them because of it. The conversation around cancer with young children holds a certain complexity. The question arises, should you say anything about it with small children as opposed to older children? How do you start the conversation? Is it necessary to be so candid with subtlety? After being diagnosed myself at an early age, and found myself in need of my own comfort in bringing on this conversation. Follow my journey as I start promoting my new book...title to be debuted at a later time on my social media page -Instagram @myelomachick . Whether having small children, grandchildren, nieces, or nephews...How have you shared your story with multiple myeloma? Y

Plugging Multiple Myeloma

I had a wonderful conversation with a new friend on the trials of myeloma, and it was interesting that we’ve both experienced to some degree the nonchalant reactions when faced with our disease. The saying to walk a mile in one's own moccasins could never be far from the truth, sometimes you get the feeling that no one cares or your cause and or experience is not of interest...., or better yet taken seriously.... I'm reviewing various sources to promote Another Face of Multiple Myeloma , and after extensive research I found there a not many books on patient related experiences, which I find odd, with the exception of popular myeloma blogger Pat Killingsley, I found just two other personal stories from author's penned memoirs on myeloma, and one unfortunately passed away and the other I'm desperately trying to gather contact information. 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...
