Today, after a one month cycle of chemotherapy, we visited with Dr. Sandhu, our oncologist, Here is the summary: GOOD NEWS! We are #thankful my body is responding to the treatments! Speaking of thankful, Team #Thankful, made up of Heather Dreise, Jeremy Dreise and Adam Mywaart will be running in the Multiple Miles for Myeloma event on July 21.

Brian’s diagnosis of Multiple Myeloma was in May 2018. The initial treatment was a stem cell transplant. After 30 months there was a relapse, followed by chemo, another relapse, new chemo and yet another relapse. In January 2024, the 4th treatment began. Brian currently gets weekly injections of an immunotherapy drug. Sometimes we keep the faith and sometimes we need family and friends around us to keep the faith for us. This blog is about enabling us all to be kept in the faith.
