Bio

I am 40 years old and this is my 3rd time being diagnosed with malignant melanoma!
I am now at Stage 3C with transit disease.
I am also the mother of three amazing girls and they are how I get through this.
My husband and I have a very difficult getting through this, I would like to talk to woman that seem to have extrodanary supportive husbands. Also, I just started my first Chemo run of the Keytruda and I have been having a very hard time with the side effects but so far I have only heard about a slight rash from everyone else.
