        I'll be there in person! My oncologist will be speaking about fertility. Should be an interesting symposium.

            Looks like a lot of great topics.  How do you find out about it?

             

            Thanks

              happyfeet123, I have the same oncologist as our generous JennUnicorn (who spoke live) and saw an announcement in the oncology office. It was put on by a group called AIM Melanoma. They seem like a good resource, but I don't know much about them.

                  Thank you! I honestly didn't know that I was going to go up there so I was a little nervous haha. It was nice to be a part of it.

                  Thank you for posting the link here this morning! I was a bit late, but I was able to tune in for some of it. I hope they share the slides or a recording of the webcast later. I'm newly diagnosed and actively learning about and considering different treatment options and the slides were helpful. -Kelly

                      Glad to be of help! I particularly liked the post-treatment talk and the patient-survivor input–hoping for us all to be post-treament someday.
