Hi Marsha, I just listened to your journey video on 09/24, and was impressed how well you and your daughters helped their father and your husband achieve remission. I sincerely hope he continues to improve but as a 75-year-old who is beginning his MM journey, your advice was valuable. I have a notebook and am taking copious notes because there’s so much to remember. All the best of health to you and your husband. Daniel

They're telling us that my husband will probably get his stem cell transplant by around Feb of 2024. He was diagnosed in September 2023. Glad you had a great outcome!!! I'm hoping things go reasonably smoothly for my husband. He got kyphoplasty also by the way. And nerve ablation, which helped a lot with pain symptoms right from the beginning.

Our sick love ones need us to be there to stop any mistakes that may possibly when they are most vulnerable. It is trying, but necessary. Plus to feel the love and commitment. What a wonderful wife.

Wow! I am glad that he is doing so well! It was really smart of you to acquire all the knowledge. I am sure that it helped that you are a lawyer. He seems like a very nice, kind gentleman. Thank you for sharing. Sometimes doctors give up really soon when its an older person.
