          That's great news about your Moffitt appointment. You have obviously taught yourself a lot about melanoma in a short amount of time and I know you will be well-prepared for your consultation. Don't forget to talk to the Moffitt social worker about available assistance and resources if you have to travel to Moffitt for treatments.

                Happy to see your post and that you got an appointment at Moffitt. I remeber sending Dr. Weber an email on a Sunday and we weren't even a patient of his. He called me back that same day  and spoke to me for a good amount of time. 

                This  board is such an amazing place for resources and for comfort. I hate that  my family had to become a part of the world of Melanoma, but if anything nice came out of it, it's all of the kind people I met along my Mom's journey. Keeping you close to my heart and in my prayers that you get good scan reports. 

                Regards,

                Wendy
