Reader Lynn Rousseau suggests this very useful site for the hard of hearing, their spouses and friends. As Lynn says, "It is a National non-profit organization based out of Bethdesa MA. and there are chapters in Canada too! The hardest part of this organization is that many people still do not know about it even though it has been around for 21 years!

'I don't feel 50' was the UK's first site for silver surfers. A glorious mess of humor, campaigning journalism, gossip, trivia, and shamelessly opinionated ranting. It all looks..... pretty awful actually, all the stories are displayed in a single sprawling column, while the text colors seem to have been picked at random in the dark while blindfolded. But somehow, it doesn't really matter and more importantly, it is very much in keeping with the site. Which is bold, bald - and strangely beautiful. I hate to encourage more flotsom on the Internet seas, but this site is very popular with seniors as it allows you to embellish your e-mail with all sorts of animation. Cute. Windows only INTERNATIONAL MYELOMA FOUNDATION Myeloma is literally an "oma," or tumor, involving the "myelo," or blood-producing cells in the bone marrow. The cells that are affected are plasma cells (a type of white blood cell), which are our antibody- (immunoglobulin-) producing cells. A malignant or cancerous plasma cell is called a myeloma cell. Myeloma is called "multiple" since there are frequently multiple patches or areas in the bones where tumors or lesions have developed. A single lesion is called a solitary plasmacytoma. Knowledge is power! Learning all you can about myeloma will empower you to make intelligent treatment choices. Until there is a cure, there is the IMF.
