Melonoma gone!

[Goatwhiskers]

You are blessed, my friend. Went down that road a few years back, a three year episode, lost most of my right ear, radiation (screwed up my beard), and chemo. Too much interferon left me with severe neuropathy in legs. Can't walk worth a chit, but I don't quit, I still hunt, target shoot, and do my chores. What I can't do my wife helps with. Fellas, if you see something on your skin that ain't supposed to be there, GET IT CHECKED!! I almost waited too long. Melanoma is mean, it wants to spread, and it wants to kill you. A blessed day to all. Goatwhiskers

Great news Doug. Keytruda is the drug that saved 91 year old Jimmy Carter.

Great news!

My brother-in-law died of melanoma several years ago, and my wife has been almost panicked that I will go the same way because I have a large number of moles. My doctor once described my back as an "encyclopedia of moles." Every few weeks, he cuts one of them out and sends it for examination.

Keytruda sounds like something I want to remember.
