      I don't come here much anymore, but for about 9 years, I was here every day.   I'm (still) raising 3 grandgirlies, and my mom has been here a while, too!

      My original surgery was in Oct–diagnosed on my 39th birthday.  The surgery I had 11 years ago still showed melanoma, so my NED date is today!  I am so blessed that I found this place, which was then called Melanoma Patients Information Page.   The information and support from here is incredible, and I'm blessed to have been able to meet many people, in real life and online, from this bulletin board!  Sadly, many are now angels.  But many more, from 11 years ago and beyond, to today, are not only still alive, but thriving!!  (Hey old-timers, give a shout-out!!) As NIcky said below (and is also celebrating 11 yrs. NED today), there is ALWAYS HOPE!!

      I love you all and wish you and yours the most wonderful Christmas of all!  And Happy New Year!!!!!

It is always on my birthday, but it is even more special because you were the first to reach out to me when I was dx. And I kind of sought you out based on patnet because I was looking for another long term survivor at my stage. And you were so kind to send me your last cd. You've been a great inspiration to me and I am so happy for your celebration today. I hope we both have many many more December 10th celebrations.

And I kind of sought you out based on patnet because I was looking for another long term survivor at my stage. And you were so kind to send me your last cd. You've been a great inspiration to me and I am so happy for your celebration today. I hope we both have many many more December 10th celebrations.
