      Kevin,

      I'm another IL-2 veteran, chiming in with encouragement.  It does work for some people.  I was a partial responder – it zapped all the non-operable tumors and left me with one, tidy, neat subQ to surgically clean up, and I've been NED for four months.  Rough side effects, but I've already forgotten most of the bad parts.  IL-2 is definitely worth trying.
