Hi, just a quick note to say the meds have put me into remission now – about 3 months now. Hoping it will last! I still have to keep taking the pills, but we are experimenting with cutting the steroids which give me grief. I will write more soon to maybe say more on how the treatment is going, for the benefit of other myeloma patients. Hope you all have a good summer!

What good news Sarah. Well done, I’m keeping everything crossed for you! Is there any chance that you and Bob can come for a visit? I had Wed 17th or 31st in mind but does your different treatment now mean that other days are good for you too? Jane x
