This begins the 4th week Maria Klump has been on the experimental drug for her multiple myeloma cancer and I have never seen her in so much pain. She is constantly complaining about her stomach and nausea associated with the drug. She is unable to eat barely anything. I do not not know how long she will be able to stay on the drug. The next meeting with her oncologist is on Tuesday October 15th and we should know by then if a long break from the drug would be advisable. The drug has pushed her Lambda Light Chains(LLC) numbers way down, so maybe a long break would be in order. Again, since this an experimental drug, the long term side effects are not known, but the short term side effects are horrific, to say the least. Please keep Maria and her family, especially, her mother Gina, who has to watch her daughter suffer so much, in your prayers. The next update will be after October 15th. Thank You!
