Re: Dr in Dana Farber for Multiple Myeloma?

It has been a very long year. My husband died at Dana Farber January 21, 2010. His Multiple Myeloma was in remission after the stem cell transplant last February. We thought things wer going great until September. It took so long to diagnose his new cancer. Angioimmunoblastic t cell lymphoma.
Imagine a new primary 6months after transplant. With my breast cancer this was 3 cancers in 3 years in one home.
Unreal.
