Multiple myeloma patient advocate Jack Aiello has been living with myeloma for 28 years. When he was diagnosed, he was told he would only have 2 to 3 years to live and there were only 2 treatment options available.

They discuss the advancement of immunotherapy for multiple myeloma, the difference between CAR T-cell therapy and bispecific antibodies and when these exciting, new treatments will be available to most patients.

How's your journey going?

[@kiwioffgrid2437]

I think that we can heal/live longer through our diet and lifestyle choices.
Grow your own organic food. It's high in nutrients and the execise helps immensely.
Avoid GMO'S, avoid pesticides, avoid flouridated water, avoid sugars, avoid fatty foods, avoid EMF radiation, avoid chemtrails etc.
Get good sleep, eat great organic self sufficient vegetables, develop a 5:40 good clean water source, get rid of ones cell phone, find a l9cation with no emf radiation/cell phone reception.
