RichVsMultMyeloma

Hai! Dx'ed with Multiple Myeloma in 2013, I Tweet about my blog share MM-related news and thoughts and snark it all up. I'm NSFW.

Rich asked that a final post be published to his blog and it is now up. He asked me to post a note to let you all know, wish all of you the best and let you know how much your friendship meant to him. Thank you.

Rich Stark passed away peacefully on Tuesday morning. The twitter community meant a lot to Rich and it allowed him to share his pain but more importantly share compassion with others. Thanks to all who helped him on this journey.

@athleteonchemo Sweet!

@ginakayRE I’ll have to ask them that today (@ColoradoBlood); I’m here today.

[RichVsMultMyeloma @richvsmm]

Blog post coming this week. Sorry, just taken me a while to process everything. Thanks for all the love and support, though, Jesus. Your comments helped me make it through a few days.

@Skip1288 @ginakayRE Yeah, waiting for ASH and then may be making that call. I like my hematologist, though.

[RichVsMultMyeloma @richvsmm]

Home, was discharged earlier today. Impression I got and wife confirmed is they believe I have about three months left. Meeting my with my onc doc tomorrow so we’ll see what’s going on, hopefully.

@ginakayRE Will have to see who the bigwigs are there, thanks.

@madaboutmyeloma Awwww , thanks!

[RichVsMultMyeloma @richvsmm]

@Lynngruber1 Yay! I look better than when you saw me in the ICU. I’m not intubated at least!

[RichVsMultMyeloma @richvsmm]

@ginakayRE Nobody’s mentioned it as the nex step, no.

[RichVsMultMyeloma @richvsmm]

@Foxmoran Yeah, can’t say I’d recommend it to anyone. And I have to agree, it does suck! Thanks Kim=)

@coffeemommy Wow, thanks Stacey, this meant a lot to me. *hugs*

[RichVsMultMyeloma @richvsmm]

@Skip1288 Yeah, I hear you. Unfortunately as you know you have to rewrite your definition of words like “fair” and “right” with a cancer diagnosis =\

[RichVsMultMyeloma @richvsmm]

@fransaraco That’s an awesome sentiment, thanks Francesca.

[RichVsMultMyeloma @richvsmm]
