Music Against Myeloma was created in memory of Mark Rubin, who passed away from

Multiple Myeloma at age 43 on Nov. 27th, 1993. With a goal to raise awareness and

funds, Music Against Myeloma joins together with the International Myeloma Foundation

Myeloma is an �oma,� or tumor, involving �myelo,� or blood-producing cells in the

bone marrow. The cells affected are plasma cells (a type of white blood cell), which

are antibody- (immunoglobulin-) producing cells. A cancerous plasma cell is called

a myeloma cell.  Myeloma is called �multiple� since there are frequently multiple

areas in the bones where tumors have developed. More at www.myeloma.org
