A random fact

Remember that your situation may look blurry, but there is someone out here in a worse situation than you. Multiple myeloma isn't know to affect those that are younger but these days this blood cancer is plaguing those that are young. I met a woman at the 9th annual blood cancer conference in Dallas and she said that she thought she was young, at 40, when she was diagnosed. She said this after she found out I was diagnosed at 31 right before my 32nd birthday. I met another guy that was diagnosed right before his 32nd birthday. Today I have learned of a young man that was 13 years old when he was diagnosed with stage 3 MM 2 years ago.

Regardless what age your diagnosed or what blood cancer you are diagnosed with. Never give up, fight the good fight, believe and have faith. Hopefully someone's story will give you that inspiration to just do that!
