Multiple Myeloma – are you a patient or a caregiver? The North Island Myeloma Group offers support, education and advocacy for you. Our very positive members meet the third Tuesday of each month, September to June, to share news, support, laughter and ideas. Though Myeloma is an incurable cancer of the bone marrow it is treatable and some of our members have been living active lives for over 10 years. The group is also holding our annual education day in Nanaimo on September 19 with Dr. Kevin Song, Clinical Assistant Professor, Vancouver General Hospital, as our keynote speaker. There is no charge and lunch is included.
For more information about our group please contact Linda at: lindalathamcr@gmail.com or 250-204-9055 or Mary at: everymountain@shaw.ca or 250-339-6743. As not everyone is comfortable in a group both Linda and Mary are also pleased to offer private meetings.
