Story

Tragically my sister passed away shortly after being diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma and Amyloidosis. She was unwell for several years but the correct diagnosis came too late in her case.

Multiple Myeloma Ireland is the only charitable organisation in Ireland focused exclusively on supporting patients, families and caters with Multiple Myeloma and related conditions including Amyloidosis. They also offer grant support to healthcare professionals to research new treatments and provide improvements in diagnosis and clinical practice.
