THANK YOU! 

It was so fun to see your incredible pictures and read your inspirational posts. It definitely helped me get up and move. I look forward to many more events in the future! 

Fitness matters to everyone, but it’s especially important for myeloma patients. The more active patients are the more they are able to tolerate therapies, which can lead to lasting outcomes. We hope to encourage both patients and caregivers to join us and build healthier habits. Remember, exercise not only changes your body, it changes your mind, attitude and mood.  Let’s improve our outcomes, and health while we get moving with HealthTree Moves for Myeloma! 

We are so grateful for the support of everyone who participated, and look forward to continually having challenges and groups on our HealthTree Moves app. Watch for the next challenge in September 2023 during Blood Cancer Awareness Month.
