    I am so proud to be in this trial, for three years now. We must remember those first brave ones, who died from BRAF alone, and the courageous Dr. Flaherty and his crew, and the FDA itself, which allowed MEK inhibitors to be given at the same time. They saved my life and so many others, and those to come. I am just overwhelmed with gratitude.
