Life is pretty good- By Paul Hampton-Smith

'Similar to other people, I had never heard of myeloma before. I had lytic lesions (holes in the bone caused by myeloma bone disease) all over my ribs and several damaged vertebrae in my spine. I started a successful course of radiotherapy to shrink the tissue pressing on my spinal cord. My height is now reduced by 7cm!

Fast forward to now, and I ride my bicycle regularly, such as the 8km commute today to the Cancer Council for an excellent seminar presented by one of Myeloma Australia’s Specialist Myeloma Nurses, Jo Gardiner.'

30 years and still counting- by Roslyn Rosengarten

'Towards the end of October 1996, about the time of my 50th birthday, after 15 months of visiting doctors complaining of intermittent rib pains, I was told I had myeloma. One haematologist told me to get my affairs in order as I only had 2 to 3 years.'

'When I was first diagnosed, there was no support for people impacted by myeloma, no awareness of this cancer, no information to access and no opportunities to connect with others affected. Between Brian and I and the two other couples, Bob and Glenys Moran and Donald and Judith Brown we set out to change this.'
