Nothing was more important as we all sat in a circle and introduced ourselves and where we were at on our journey. How great that was with both patients and caretakers talking; Laughter and tears were shared.
Special thanks to Dr. Sandhu, Dr. Wadhwa, Dr. Hoegler, Dr. Dueck and Dr. Michaud.
We also thank Yvonne Hardwickie who was instrumental in putting many of the doctors on the agenda. Without her help this may not have happened.
Thanks to our medical support folks, Terry Heidt from Inspire Health, David Greenshields, and Kathy Green, both counselors from the BC Cancer Agency, Martine from Myeloma Canada and event sponsors, Celgene and Janssen. Myeloma Canada also was there every step of the way to help us.
On behalf of Myeloma Canada and the myeloma community in the Okanagan, we would like to thank Ron for planning such a successful and worthwhile event!
