      Just wanted to pass along, our sweet Bubbles / Celeste / Les has recently left us, for the eternal peace. Bubbles passed away on 10/23/2024. We are forever in debt to her for her endless knowledge of the melanoma world. She always knew where the new clinical trials were opening up. Bubbles, you always surrounded us with your love and compassion. I will constantly miss my good friend. Bubbles, your smile, laughter and warmth will be my companion for life

          Oh my Gosh. That is devastating and surprising. May she rest in peace. She was committed to helping so many terrified melanoma patients here.

              I am devastated. I was receiving my PD1 treatment when Celeste was getting her treatment. We were both in a clinical trial with Dr. Webber, who also recently passed from cancer. Does anyone know was caused her death? God Bless her and may she rest in peace. She helped thousand of Melanoma patients.

                  Cat, all of us are feeling an enormous amount of pain.
                  I received an email from her this past August.
                  Sadly Les was in the midst of her third different cancer.
                  It’s called adenocarcinoma of the appendix.
                  She did sign a no recitation form.
                  No where in her email, did I get a sense that her life was closing down.
                  All of us are so fortunate to have her in our lives.

                  Les is a superstar ⭐️.

                    Thank you John for replying. I agree! Les was Celeste’s rock! I thought that she beat adenocarcinoma. My heart is broken for her family. I just can’t believe that she is gone! How did you hear about her passing?
