      Trying to figure this forum thing out.  Apparently my answers to the 2 posts did not actually post.  Not sure where they went to.  I had the posts in my in box at AOL (just a notification???) and his reply from my e mail.  Then after not seeing my posts I have discovered this way to reply/post.  Heck I thought figuring out this cancer thing was hard!!!

      Linda,

      Hope tjhis posts.  This is the 1st time using a group or forum.  He had a PET scan done after the biopsy came back melanoma and it showed no other signs. Good?  Bad?  He goes in next month for the next surgery of removing more lymph nodes.  If it has spread to the lymph nodes does it make it stage IV.  Stage IV – just a matter of time stage short of a miracle????????????
