'Walking With Big EZ' Named One of the 11 Multiple Myeloma Blogs That You Should Be Following!


We were recently contacted by the community coordinator at WEGO Health, an online forum for bloggers that is focused on specific health concerns (you can see what they are all about here) . We were honored to be recognized by them for our blog's focus on Multiple Myeloma. Ten other blogs that Linda and I regularly follow were also recognized by WEGO:  11 Multiple Myeloma Blogs That you Should be Following.

When we began blogging about our journey, we desperately hoped it would not only be a record of what we were going through, but also a means by which we could educate others about this awful form of blood cancer that we had never even heard of before the diagnosis. Hopefully we can be a positive encouragement to others in their battle. It has been so helpful to connect with men and women who are undergoing treatment, fighting for their lives, and hoping for a cure. They are real people, all over the world with a common mantra...dominate multiple myeloma! We feel privileged to share in their struggles and triumphs, and are humbled by this recognition.

  1. You have definitely been an encouragement to others! I'm not struggling with any type of cancer, but with another difficult situation. Seeing how you and your entire family have faced this difficult path with such grace and optimism has been an amazing example for everyone! Thanks so much for sharing your story.
