She went to pick up meds tonight, and the volunteer at the checkin desk saw her forms and said "Myeloma?" They confirmed and he grinned. He was diagnosed 14 years ago, and is getting a second stem cell transplant sometime this year. So that gave us all some hope. We just hope she responds to treatment as well as he did.
She's home now, which is good. Hopefully she'll be able to do her injections locally (the tiny hospital in our town of 2900 is a regional cancer center. The hospital network is tricking the gov't into keeping all the small town hospitals open by making each one a 'specialty center'. Very clever!)
