Next Meeting · April 21, 2026

Our April meeting is a group share meeting.

• Shawna Kuhlers, UW Hematology Clinic Pharmacist was our featured speaker for the March meeting. She has sent her answers to the questions that we forwarded to her in advance of the meeting.
  We will definitely have her back again.
  
  
• Our group discussion expanded on the concept of a “Healthy Mind”. Richard J. Davidson, UW professor of Psychology and Psychiatry has an interesting YouTube presentation entitled “The 4 Pillars
  of a Healthy Mind”. It is an easy search on Google or whatever you use to search topics.
  
  
• Here is a free app entitled - Healthy Minds Program App | Science-Based Wellbeing .
  
  
• With our group member's permission, I am sharing Lori's recently published article entitled – “Who Am I Now?” It is a deeply moving, thought provoking description of how life is changed when diagnosed with a cancer. Her characterization of the Two You's – one to grieve and not to forget. The other to embrace and build a strong resilience to meet each day with grace. Well done Lori!
  
  
• Found some very interesting information about “Cost Plus Drug Pricing”. A new resource is Mark Cuban's company that was launched 2022 that sells generic drugs at cost plus 15% markup and a $5
  pharmacy fee and shipping. Although many Myeloma drugs are not yet available on this site, some are and it is worth checking to see what does qualify and how much of a savings there might be
  
  
• https://www.costplusdrugs.com As more drugs are added in the future, it is worth checking from time to time.
