      I haven't been on the MPIP Bulletin Board in years, but I am still active with the MRF Gala in the San Francisco Bay Area.  The MPIP was such and amazing support to me when I was desperate for advice and support.  Being able to connect with other melanoma patients was critical to extending the life of my daughter Jenna, and keeping my head above water.  I will be eternally grateful for this resource.  The Gala gives patients/families/MRF an opportunity to meet in person.  If you live in Northern California (or want to visit San Francisco) come to the event!  We are your community, and we want to meet you.

          Hi Lauren

          I was happy to see this post as I have thought about you often throughout the last few years. If you remember, my son Ben was at Berkeley with Lauren and was dx stage 3 in 2009. He is still NED five yrs later after a year of interferon. I know how lucky we are and also how things could change in a minute.

          Nice to see you are still involved tihe the Gala.

          take care
