Attention Slave Lake Residents!
With the calendar flipping to March, the Town of Slave Lake Council has proclaimed March 2024 as Multiple Myeloma Awareness Month. This decision was made on February 6th, 2024, at the Regular Meeting of Council.
“Eleven Canadians are diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma every day. While great strides have been made in treatments and therapy for people living with myeloma, there is a need to raise awareness and support clinical research to find a cure.”
Myeloma is the second most common blood cancer. Multiple Myeloma Month promotes awareness of this relatively unknown disease and the importance of early detection, diagnosis, and accelerated access to treatment.
