I was happy to hear the good news for you and I am sorry to hear that your wife has multiple myeloma.
In Jan. 2002, one of my partners in my dental practice was diagnosed with multiple myeloma. He has had some ups and downs and is still practicing dentistry full time. There are many treatments available and one may work for quite some time and then a switch to something else can be made.
There are support groups on the web and if I can help you in any way, please let me know.
