  • The words ‘Multiple Myeloma’ never crossed Paul Hollingsworth’s mind until the spring of 2020. He went to the emergency room for severe back pain only to learn that this form of blood cancer had invaded his spine.

    I was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma in May 2020. I was only 39 years old then but they believed I had MM ar least 2 years prior to being diagnosed so I'm a pretty rare case as most who get this type of cancer are usually around 70 years old. I never thought cancer was something I would have had to worry about but life had other plans. I'm 43 years old now. I had a stem cell transplant in 2021 and now I'm still waiting for things to get better but it's been 3 years so far. All I can do is keep fighting. I pray for all who have to deal with this terrible disease ❤

    My father passed away from this horrible disease almost two years ago. He was perfectly healthy and very active until it took him down. It hit him very quickly and in a matter of months he was bed ridden. It was devastating to watch him suffer! Praying they continue to work for a cure so others don't have to suffer like he did.

    Hello! I just had a chance to look at the comments about the treatment that I’ve been on. The drug is called Darzalex. It helps to attack bad cancer cells in the bloodstream. Please ask me if you have any questions! I am blessed to have been able to be on the trial.

      Is this news story about Darzalex? It referred to immunotherapy, is that what this drug does? My sister has multiple myeloma and she has not had much medical care. She may be at deaths door now because she developed a bad tumor but she's had this for about 7 years now with very little help from her oncologist. Please respond to this, we're desperate.
