But who is counting ( I am!)
My son was diagnosed in July 09 just beofre his 21st birthday, oral melanoma (toungue) one postive node, year of interferon, a few scares a long the way.
Pet scan yesterday, NED! I have been extra nervous becuase his oncologist decided scans once a year were fine ( he is not a melanoma specialist) so it has been a year since his last one. Plus, next week he is moving to NYC because he got accepted to a fellowship that will keep him there (teaching math) for 5 years..sad he will be 3000 miles away but excited for him.

Becky, That is fantastic news, so very happy for your son and for your whole family. I always remembered his story, because my husband also has mucosal melanoma and did the year of interferon. So exciting your son is doing so well, living his life, starting a new job, and moving for another adventure. Melanoma hasn’t stopped his dreams one bit, good for him!! Please keep posting his good news and updates. All the best to you, Valerie (Phil’s wife) -
