I am wondering why Kaitlyn's doctor feels that radiation will not work well with yervoy. Please read this article, entitled "Radiation Blast May turbo-charge yervo,." which suggests the opposite.

I have to post this anonymously, as my husband too lost his battle 21 days ago and could not bring myself to write. I honestly do not know how to handle the recurring thoughts of the suffering that my gentle, sweet, compassionate and strong husband endured. I cannot help but ponder the "what ifs," the lost chances, and blame myself self-destructively every day. for not having been able to keep him alive beyond the nine years that he had this disease, which had penetrated his lymphatic system immediately upon diagnosis due to failure to diagnose immediately. I had spent 24 hours seven days a week with him for the past six months, going to doctor's offices, trying new treatments, and now I have to ask myself who I am because I lost myself in this process. I walk around in such intense pain that nothing – no medications – can alleviate. There has been an eery stillness to the earth since he has departed in physical form, and the quiet — without his beautiful voice – hurts beyond belief. Melanoma is so much more violent than any other cancer yet people think it's just a superficial skin disease. Please tell me caregivers of melanoma loved ones – how do you do it? How do you continue to live? I have children and love them, but I am in such pain that I selfishly look forward to the end.

I do yoga every day. It really helps me build the core strength that I need as a care giver. Today I suggested that my husband do the "cat pose" to help with back pain and help build arm muscle. It was effective. I just saw your post, and I agree. Pranayana breathing can be very effective, and the poses can help in myriad ways. Thanks for posting this good advice.
