I like your advice and the statistics really put it in perspective. I know we all wish that we were in that top 33%, but what are the chances....1/3.....not very good odds. I am still shocked that Susan passed as quickly as she did. Life is full of twists and turns, and our fate seldom lies in our own hands. My memories of Susan will live in my heart until it is my time for me to join her. Please keep writing. You are very gifted.Peggie Torresnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7011190064765587212.post-82976988053762027262010-04-14T18:12:56.621-07:002010-04-14T18:12:56.621-07:00These are things most people put aside and don'...These are things most people put aside and don't want to face.

Though I do not know you personally, your compassion, love for Sue, and compelling honesty, as seen through your blog, has greatly affected me. Thank you. Write the book, I'll read it.<br /><br />Sean M.<br /><br /><br />www.myelomayoureloma.blogspot.comSean Murrayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06954782169183374420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7011190064765587212.post-34979464472743726092010-04-14T10:22:34.952-07:002010-04-14T10:22:34.952-07:00There are a number of web-based softwares for writ...There are a number of web-based softwares for writing and publishing the book which may give you more control over what is invested since it is possible to produce the books one at a time rather than doing a "run" of 1000's and ending up on the "remainder" shelves, thus eating up any profits that might be derived and assigned elsewhere.<br /><br />I couldn't agree with you more about discussion of pre-death issues. I did do this with my mother, but in the end she assigned all her POA, etc to someone else - certainly her choice. But I was able to grieve the absence of her in my life rather than the surrounding issues of guilt, "if only's" and other end-of-life, end-of-era, endings which only increase the stock for Kimberly-Clark.<br /><br />Thank you for finding a way to further education about MM - I have a relative with it - and to further family and friend relationships right up to the open door.Sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02265922352726668243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7011190064765587212.post-46346000338234700062010-04-14T09:47:46.481-07:002010-04-14T09:47:46.481-07:00Regarding your book idea, George: GO FOR IT!

I have "enjoyed" following your blog, if you can call following the premature ending of such a special life "enjoyable". But let it be known that we love you as much as we loved Sue and continue to send warm thoughts your way as you transition to this new phase in your life.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7011190064765587212.post-42495586664073826342010-04-14T09:23:02.213-07:002010-04-14T09:23:02.213-07:00Sorry to hear about your wife- I came by this post...Sorry to hear about your wife- I came by this posting accidently. My best friend had multiple myeloma and the actual Velcade cause dhis death- the nurses and satff at the oncology day ward ever recognized the creeping neuropathy that triggered eventually his vagus nerve to be paralyzed. I feel so badly for every one with cancers. I think it is horrendous to watch the poison they are subjected to on top of the cancer- I hope one day we can treat people without killing them off way before the disease kills them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7011190064765587212.post-2002947207845526792010-04-14T09:15:39.826-07:002010-04-14T09:15:39.826-07:00Thank you for this and your last post - I was diag...Thank you for this and your last post - I was diagnosed in August 2009 - stage IIIB lung cancer - I'm 46 and my husband is 71 - not the way we thought we'd be spending 2010. The first thing I did was call our attorney and transfer assets - made out our wills and POAs. I'm still hopeful, obviously, but things have a way of going south very quickly. The funeral issues still have my family in an uproar - no one wants to talk about it but me. Guess I'll just set up what I want, pay for it in advance and leave a list of instructions that I hope they'll follow. I'm so sorry for your loss, and hope my husband does as well as you when I'm no longer around.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
