My Story

(Español más abajo) Thanks for visiting my fundraising page! For many of you, it will come as no surprise to know that I was diagnosed with multiple myeloma three years ago. Since then, I have had the privilege of receiving the best possible treatment. Today, 44 chemotherapy sessions and a stem cell transplant later, I can say that I'm in remission. If I'm feeling well today, it is thanks to the work of all those who have researched this and other types of cancer. But there is still a long way to go. Multiple myeloma is still a disease for which there is no definitive cure. Initiatives like this one, no matter how small, will contribute to a future — not too far away, I hope — when the world can say that a cure has been found. Thank you so much for taking the time to read these words! ¡Gracias por visitar esta página de recaudación de fondos! Para muchos de ustedes no es una sorpresa saber que fui diagnosticado con mieloma múltiple hace tres años. Desde entonces, he tenido el privilegio de contar con el mejor tratamiento posible. Hoy, 44 sesiones de quimioterapia y un transplante de células madre más tarde, puedo decir que estoy en remisión. Si hoy me encuentro bien es gracias al trabajo de todos quienes han investigado este y otro tipo de cánceres. Pero falta muchísimo. El mieloma múltiple es todavía una enfermedad sin cura definitiva. Iniciativas como esta (por pequeña que sea) contribuirán a que en un futuro no muy lejano el mundo pueda decir que se encontró una cura. ¡Muchas gracias por leer estas líneas!
