      I lost my husband to Melanoma May 28, 2011.  He had a mole removed mid back Feb 2009, went stage IV March 2010.  I found a wonderful therapist who was able to help us immensely.  I would make that recommendation to you.  Reach out for help from someone who has professional training.

           My husband was a patient at NIH about this time last year.  It took us less than a week to get an appt.  We waited 2 days for his surgery after our consultation out there.  They move very quickly and efficiently.   Much more so than the private sector.  I can not say enough great things about our experiences.  It was extra ordinary care.  Good luck.

      Barb:  My husband started out at the U of M Ann Arbor.  I would advise you to get a second and maybe third opinion, from melanoma experts.  Feel free to contact me.  mgs@wi.rr.com

      Decison made, he would not survive Yervoy.  Hospice has been engaged and right now he's pain free and enjoying a nap at home in the sunshine with a cat on his lap.  Man this sucks………

        Lori;  We've been seeing Kaufman and Batus for 14 months, tears all around today saying goodbye to the great team.  Their job must be so tough.
