Are you navigating life with MGUS or smoldering multiple myeloma? Join our upcoming Gather Community Event for a supportive, live-only session designed for individuals managing these precursor conditions and looking to connect with peers navigating a similar path.

What to Expect

  1. Joan’s Story: We will open the meeting with Joan, who will share her firsthand experience living with MGUS/SMM and offer an honest look at what life has been like since transitioning to active multiple myeloma (MM).

  2. Open Community Discussion: Following Joan's perspective, we will open the floor for an interactive group discussion. This is your space to share your own experiences, ask questions, and find mutual encouragement.

Whether you are currently in the "watch and wait" phase or trying to understand what a transition to active treatment looks like, this event offers a welcoming environment to build meaningful connections. Register today to join a myeloma community that truly understands what you are experiencing.
