Hello Linda, so sorry to hear your news, i am sending you, your Mum and the family love, Mum will know that you are there as she will hear you, hearing i have been told is the sensory ability that is retained even when we think that the person is drifting in and out of sleep. It is sad to think that Myeloma is being missed so much in older people when the signs are glaringly obvious really to those that know this illness, i so hope in the future that with more awareness people will be diagnosed earlier, take care at this difficult time San xx
