      Six years ago on 8/11/05 I was diagnosed with cancer and told it was mel.  About two weeks later during my 2nd opinion appointment I was told that I was Stage IV.  

      Fast forward to Aug 2011 – I received results from my quarterly (August) scans.  Clean brain MRI and clean CT. 

      Loving life today!
