Eternally Grateful


When Andrew McVey’s father was diagnosed with multiple myeloma in 1995, he was told he had a %50 chance of living more than two years. Thanks to advances in treatment made possible by the MMRF, his father was able to beat the odds and lived a full decade after his diagnosis. “The MMRF gave him a new lease on life,” Andrew said. “The advances in treatment extended Dad’s life, and gave him good quality of life… I am eternally grateful to the MMRF!” With his run, Andrew is helping patients like his dad by supporting research that helps extend patients’ lives and give them hope for a cure!
