      All of us fighting melanoma should be giving much thanks to Dr. James Allison. He is the doctor / researcher that finally figured out a big part of our immune system. Dr. Allison had to argue with plenty of pharmaceutical people, researchers and also fellow doctors.

      His movie “Jim Allison Breakthrough” has been shown in several locations. It has just been announced that Amazon is retailing his movie. It will be $5 to rent, $10 to buy and $20 for the DVD.
      A lot of people are intrigued by this movie. Might be a good movie to have around on the next wintry day.

            Watched the movie a few days ago with Allyn. It is so good! Mr. Allison is a character as well as a genius.

              This film is excellent. I am alive thanks to Dr Jim Allison. I was diagnosed with stage 4 melanoma in August 2015.

                  That does make me question my career choices, as I shuffle papers on my desk from one tray to another …. sigh
