Poor Hamada – back in bed for the whole of this weekend, with yet another cold and now a chest infection. His very much reduced, white blood cells, affect his ability to fight off any infections. So he always succumbs easily. With the continuing severe pain in his spine – it has at times, been difficult to make him comfortable – he has been sleeping most of the time so now I’m really hoping he will be well enough to start his further treatment later this week.

Still, some excellent news from NICE in the media today, about the drug Velcade – thank goodness for that – I believe this new system will help provide many more Multiple Myeloma Patients, who need this drug, to receive it. – See More in Q & A @ www.myeloma.org.uk
