        Amy, may you guide us in the fight with melanoma as you did while living with it.  Prayers for Dennis and the family.  Amy and I were diagnosed around the same time and was such a help in learning what this crap called melanoma was.  One day I hope to give her a big hug along with all our other warriors1

            Good luck with the waiting.  You have all the good advice.  I'm another with about the same stats.  Diagnosed at the end of April-surgery wasn't until almost Memorial Day.  Mine was on my back-ended up with drainage under both arms.  I did not wear a bra for at least 2 weeks-I had some swelling in the areas even though they were just SNB.  I am overweight which probably contributed to that.   They did do a CT scan before surgery.  nothing found.  And at the end of April will be 8 years NED.  Don't drive yourself crazy.  And if you do, we are here on the board.

                Thanks Charlie, I too saw her facebook update and had to come back to the place we met.  Amy, Shannon and I were all diagnoses about the same time.  Amy is such a warrior, but I know that she is tired.  I pray that God is with Amy and all of her family -as well as all of us- as she shows us how to continue the fight against melanoma.
