      Hi everyone.

      Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays.  Well it's now coming up to the end of my 13th year surviving this disease.  After 3 primary melanomas of various depths and types over the 13 years, one spreading to my lymph nodes, 2 radiation treatments and lymphoedema in my right leg, it is so good to be persistently kicking this disease.  I have been clear for quite a few years now.  For all those out there who are battling and going through a difficult time at the moment, please never give up hope.  Try and reduce your stress over the holiday season and enjoy each day you have. Once again and I say this each year, but MPIP got me through some of those dark days and I will never forget that, thank you everyone for making this board a beacon of hope. You can read my patnet under Nicky

                      Congratulations on your continued NED-ness!!! ๐Ÿ™‚

                      I'm going to piggy back on your post here and add the good news that my husband is approaching 12 years NED after stage iii.  Out of the blue, I thought to come here today and see what was going on, saw your post and realized how much I appreciated posts like this in the early days after my husband's diagnosis, and wanted to add his own NED success to boost other's morale.
