June 30

After scans yesterday and this morning, this afternoon we received the fabulous news that the tumors are still shrinking – the IL-2 is still working! We go back in 6 weeks to do the scans again and re-check the progress. But for now, we are free for 6 more weeks. It is time to reclaim our lives and move forward. I will post more this weekend, but for now the news is still sinking in and there are too many emotions to process coherently. Because of the tumor that grew on my neck, I was so nervous for the results today and as positive as I tried to be, I was genuinely surprised at this wonderful news.

Today I am thankful for life.

    As a fellow Melanoma patient (albeit, only Stage IIIC), I just want to add my congratulations on your continued improvement. I have been following your story since my own diagnosis three months ago.

    Sending good karma and wishes your way...
