Wishing you the best. I am 70 and have been a Marrow Registration volunteer for about fifteen years - also was on the potential donor list until I was aged out. Never matched. What has been the best for me in this journey is meeting people such as you - the patients - and the registrants and other volunteers. I will be working at an upcoming drive in two weeks. Looking forward to it. Keep well. To others - contact your local marrow center and ask to volunteer.

I am happy you are doing good. 2 weeks ago I found out my dear uncel who is 50 was diagnosed with multiple myeloma. I am so sad. He looks really weak. Your videoss have been really helpfull in helping me understand, what this cruel cancer does to someone. I love your attitude. God bless you and your family.

Hello,I hope everything goes great for you.. Listen it almost seems like plp like you are my only information now. I have a really really good friend that is funny to say a Celtics fan. We are from South dakota and he has been diagnosed with lymphoma T-cell, we were thinking about the trnasplant. Not sure what to think about it??? u seem pretty young which he is 33 and i would like to know what i am looking at here. So confused and shocked!!!!Share the experience with me????? STAY HEALTHY

I've been watching your videos to gear up for my cousin's upcoming SCT for MM. I'm so glad you're turning the corner, and hope that you are starting to feel better each day. You are definitely looking better. Funny that you don't have to shave--there should be one good side effect, right? Good luck with your recovery.
