I am not, nor have I ever been a primary caregiver.  I will say though, that I would not be where I am today were it not for the efforts of my primary caregiver, Dawn Emerson.  

At the time of my diagnosis, Dawn was my girlfriend-my diagnosis was in February of 1994.  Dawn agreed to marry me in March of 1996.  We married 9/14/96, our son Alexander was born 9/25/98, and Alex just finished the first grade.  As for my myeloma, during good times and bad, Dawn was with me every step of the way. 

Caregivers are special people.  I am working with a primary caregiver of a myeloma survivor of more than 15 years.  She will chronical various emotional, personal and financial issues of being a caregiver.  Look for caregiver content in the months ahead.

In the meantime, I welcome questions and comments (or rants) from any and all caregivers.
