Helpful Hints - Patient to Patient
Helpful Hints - Patient to Patient
Patients tell the story of dealing with myeloma better than anyone else. They live the process. They develop ways to cope.
The following pages include tips and pointers and messages of inspiration from Myeloma Institute patients. They share their thoughts in the hope that other patients will find them helpful.
The patient to patient bond can be one of the strongest. All of us at the Myeloma Institute encourage this special bonding.
