Smith was grateful the MPP took time to hear his concerns about the lack of provincial funding for Revlimid, a new drug recently approved by the federal health authorities that is highly regarded by oncologists as a way of slowing the cancer activity and extending the life of myeloma patients. Revlimid is very expensive, at almost $10,000 dollars per month. More than 2,000 Canadians are diagnosed with multiple myeloma each year.
