My dad died in September 2021 at the age of 78 of an undiagnosed #myeloma. That was abrupt, he died 3 weeks after arriving at the hospital, I still often think about that terrible month.
Beside having been a school #teacher, he painted is whole life since the age of 15, and left a large #legacy of #paintings and #drawings. I immediately thought about #digitizing his complete work, even if it looked like a huge undertaking, probably for both said and unsaid reasons.

An experimental treatment developed in #Israel has a 90% success rate at bringing patients with multiple #myeloma into remission. Scientists involved in this innovative treatment hail it as an “unprecedented achievement.”

One of the good things about working at the hospital is that you can run into the cancer support nurses in the corridor and have a quick catch up on how your treatment is going. Very convenient!

Gidday, myeloma. So, you’re back. We had hoped you’d stay away for more than 18 months, but I’ve got some drugs to take care of you (hopefully). Took the first of them last night. Let’s see how long you last. And that radiation is going to sort you out in my back and leg, so don’t get too comfortable.

Brain MRI today. Last one I was pretty messed up from the mucor surgery. Hopefully this time I can keep it together in the tube. #myeloma #mri

I feel like I should be able to send cookies or something. "Hey. Thanks for taking one for the team. If you don't end up dead, drinks are on me."

Probably not a lot new since the one they just did in Asia, but it's virtual and the multiple myeloma presentation is at 9:00 am (Eastern) if you feel like listening to experts talk about what lurks in your body. #multiplemyeloma #myeloma

Numbers are still good, but it’s hard not to go there about persistent, increasing pain in my knee. At least this time when they call I’ll know what pathological means. #myeloma #xray
