It is with a very sad heart that I write about Pat's death from complications of both his treatment and Myeloma. Though I never met him face to face, we did "appear" together on a
Curetalk back a few years ago. Pat's column in the Myeloma Beacon and his website were a constant, reliable source for everyone dealing with Multiple Myeloma. He researched the disease and faithfully attended Oncology conferences to gain knowledge not just for himself but for all of us in
the Myeloma community. He made the disease understandable to just about anyone who wanted to find out what they had and how they might treat it.
Pat was always up beat and ended all his columns with his favorite saying to Feel good and keep smiling! Well it is very hard for those of us today to now Feel good and keep smiling upon learning of his death!!!!
Pat Killingsworth will be missed sorely and never replaced!
Good Night and Good Bye Pat.
So devastating to lose him. Such a caring and generous man. Still can't believe he's gone. :o(
