Kirk is a 66-year-old recent retiree whose multiple myeloma was caught early and without symptoms. He began quadruple induction therapy in spring 2022, underwent an autologous stem cell transplant that September, and started maintenance therapy by year’s end. Now nearly three years post-transplant, he feels great—more energetic and resilient than he has felt in years. He credits excellent medical care and the unwavering support of family, friends, and colleagues for his progress. With a background in healthcare and a coaching certification earned in 2021, he's passionate about helping others navigate this complex journey with insight, hope, and compassion.
