Hi Everyone!
As you may know, in August 2019, after having really bad back pain for about 8 months, I was diagnosed with multiple myeloma. This was just a few weeks after my wedding. Talk about timing! In March 2020, I had a successful stem cell transplant. I'm happy to say that I'm now on maintenance drugs and doing very well. It's definitely been a crazy journey. I'm so grateful for all the amazing support that you, my friends and family, have given me! I couldn't do it without you.
Now, for the fourth year in a row, I am raising money in support of Myeloma Canada by participating in the Multiple Myeloma March. If you donated and/or walked with us last year, THANK YOU!
By making a donation this year, you are helping to fund clinical research and to support advocacy for accelerated access to game-changing therapies for Canadian myeloma patients.
If you would like to donate, push the 'Donate Now' button just above and help me to reach my fundraising goal!
If you can join us for the March, even better! It's October 5, 2025 and registration starts at 10 am. This year, the walk is at Deer Lake Park in Burnaby. The address is: 5435 Sperling Ave, Burnaby, BC V5E 2L8 https://maps.app.goo.gl/z9rsVw5BTG7Mehb38
Let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you SO much for your support!
