It is with a heavy  heart that I share the news of my dads passing . Last thursday 10/10/13. He was diagnosed 7/6/13 .with no physical symtoms …. he had 2 treatments of the yervoy, but one thing after the other started happening. ., melanoma stole my dads breath and voice… I pray for an end to this relentless disease. .

      I am so sad for you all…  and things moved and changed so quickly for you. It is never easy to deal with loss, but I think even harder when you have so little time. I am so sorry for you and for your family. Your dad sounds like such a neat guy from reading your profile page. May your many happy memories help bring comfort.

        Im very sorry to hear that Lori, I empathise with loosing your dad. This disease is so nasty that even though you know at some point that it's probably going to take them, it's very hard seeing someone so well, to gone in such a short time. All I can say is that things will get easier with time. Loss sucks….and it probably will always hurt, but time passes and you learn to live it with. I hope that you and your family can remember the good times with your dad and feel blessed that he was so wonderful.

        Take care
