Diagnosed June 2022. Learning a lot from these videos. Thank you for sharing info. Not eligible for Stem Cell Transplant due to Chronic Heart Failure but Induction therapy has knocked it down a lot. Hopeful!

I was diagnosed in 2014. Here it is 2021. It’s a hard road. I hurt everyday. I feel for anyone who has to go through this crazy cancer. My grandpaw GW Brown died with it. But it’s not related to each other.

Husband was diagnosed 2014. Still fighting and trying to get through it.

[@taraalan1131]

My then husband died aged 34 from this disease. His treatment seemed to consist mainly of blood transfusions. At one point he needed 6 pints and it was a miracle that he could function at all. This was in the seventies.

[@frankpaya690]

He was extremely young to have multiple myeloma. Are you sure that was the cancer that he had?

[@ScottsBranch]

My ex-wife just found out she has MM it hit me hard because her mother died from cancer when she was 12 years old. I keep her in my prayers and this has moved us closer together in a positive way.

Better come up with a plan for your life and try to do as much of it as you can. Because honestly , things can be taken so quickly in this life. Health is amazingly fragile.

[@serenafanlife4226]

MM affects all races and ages. Cancer does not discriminate. For all MM fighters, keep on fighting! Do not give up faith for a cure.

[@davidrainwater6954]

I have MM... I don't understand... What does "fighting" mean?

[@BoRanson]

Living each day with the hand you were dealt and not giving up hope for tomorrow.
