Recently my husband and I moved my mom into assisted living closer to us; she asked for help as she has fallen a few times and has very low energy. After visits to new doctors and 3 days in hospital for blood transfusions, she has now had a bone marrow biopsy to confirm multiple myeloma. She is 85, not a good candidate for bone marrow transplant and I doubt she is strong enough for chemotherapy or radiation. Very luckily no dimentia, although she has turned control and decisions over to me as power of attorney, I worry about what additional help she will need and when. Anyone out there who has dealt with similar situation? What might we expect?
