                    No problem. I was really surprised reading about it. I've heard this guy calling NBA basketball games on the radio for years and never did I hear anywhere that he is a melanoma survivor. It is great to hear about "celebrities" that have been treated for melanoma, what they did, where they went, who were their docs., because you have to think that with all of their "power", that they get to the "right" places. Anyway, I hope that many more on here just get a chance to read this and take something positive from it like all of you did. Best wishes everyone.

                        Loved this inspiring piece, as a fan of Dr. Jack — always an intense and colorful companion during a game — and as a stage IV patient currently on temodar. Thanks for posting.
