Hello,

So sorry for your loss. We had never even heard of Multiple Myeloma before. Only got the diagnosis after many months of of extremely low blood counts. A bone marrow biopsy confirmed it and the day before the bone survey she fell and then everything went down hill from then.So apparently she'd had it for awhile.My sister and I spent the last week with her while she was in hospice.Was your mom in alot of pain?

Thank you, yes she was in a lot of pain not sure what hurts more having her gone or seeing her in the pain she was in.  She had the same issues with the low blood counts and had to get numerous blood transfusions. She was fine that Monday as she went out shopping went for a transfusion on Wednesday and hospice called me and my sister home Thursday we made her comfortable and she passed that Friday morning

OMG i can't beleive there r others who lost their mom the same way I did.  My Mother died from this rare type of cancer as well.  It is awful!  My Mom kept getting pnemonia and sick all the time and then when the doctors kept ignoring the fact that it is odd to be that sick so much, she collapsed into a Coma!  After she woke up 7 days later they did intense testing and found the cancer.  She died 1 month before she was gonna be released to come home bc a bacteria started in her lungs and moved through her body and ate up her liver. :( I miss her.
