      We’re celebrating 3 years melanoma free! Ron had a deep and large tumor removed in his back, and total left inguinal lymph node dissection. The lymph nodes were matted, so we really didn’t know how many were involved. He did interferon for 10 months. There have been some issues with pain and lymphedema, but no signs of recurrence. We are so blessed.

      For 2 years I could barely leave this site. I watched, asked questions, and posted sometimes. It was an invaluable source of information, help, and support for us as we scrambled to learn. Thanks to those of you that continue to be there for all of us that are faced with gathering information on a subject we really don’t want to have to learn about.

      Ou prayers will continue for those facing this disease.
