I sympathize with you and your husband. My husband's is very aggressive. Its like a monster that just keeps coming back. Where is your husband having his therapy? He just had another body check and where he had radiation, the melanoma is back.. He was clear Dec. 30 and middle of January already positive again! Very discouraged and depressed. He sleeps a lot. We are going up to Mayo Clinic March 2 to discuss another option. The Keytruda caused him to have mouth sores, Lichenoid Plantus. Ever heard of it? Very painful so they don't want to give him more Keytruda..
We have another friend and Keytruda was successful for him.
I hope your husbands surgery is successful. And I hope Keytruda works for him. Keep me posted!
I'll be praying and thinking of you.
I'm scared and upset. But I have to act positive for him. I have support from my sisters. Do you have anyone to lean on?

Oh no I am so sorry to hear this, I was really hoping that he was doing better. I understand completely how you are feeling. We are in Naples Florida and our oncologist is with Florida Cancer. We do have Moffit Cancer in Tampa if we need them., His big surgery was in November, his was nodular 2B. This surgery was a lymph node this past week and Keytruda will start in a few weeks. I am so sorry that happened to your husband with Keytruda and I appreciate you sharing that with me. We are worried of course. I like you try to shield him from my fear…

I have many close friends close by thankfully ..and support from my sister too,. I will be praying for you both. Where are you located?
