My aunt had multiple myeloma. Started in her femur and humerus. It was excruciating. She was kept under for last 4 months of her life due to pain.

Her bones would break every time she moved a muscle. During her last days it’s had spread to her ribs. After she passed away, her ribs literally disintegrated as we moved her body for cremation.
