Hello Everyone,

My daughter and I will be participating in a walk on September 28, 2024 to raise funds for Multiple Myeloma a blood cancer which she was diagnosed with in early December 2018 at the age of 34. She had 17 weeks of chemotherapy and had a stem cell transplant in May of 2019. She started a slow relapse from mid 2020 to January 2023 and went back into weekly chemotherapy injections for 23 weeks with immunotherapy injections and as of July 2023 she is in the long-term maintenance phase of her new treatment plan and gets the immunotherapy injection every 28 days. This is on going. Multiple Myeloma is incurable at this time and the monthly immunotherapy injections are keeping the Multiple Myeloma in check and our biggest hope is that a cure will be found soon so that she can live her life cancer free.

This is our 6th year participating in the Myeloma March and it will take place at Storie Park Community Center Oshawa, On. We will take part in the national 5km walk to raise funds for research and access to innovative medications that will increase life expectancy and move the needle toward a cure for patients impacted by myeloma. Last year we were so very touched by everyone's generosity and support with your donations, and we hope you can help us meet our goals again this year!

By donating to our team, you are helping to fund clinical research and to support advocacy for accelerated access to game-changing therapies for Canadian myeloma patients.

Please donate today and help us reach our fundraising goal!

Thank you,
Micheline
