Diagnosis
I also wanted to post the medical diagnosis. John had a stroke which led to the diagnosis of Metastatic Melanoma that is widespread. Two years ago John had a stage 2 melanoma removed from his back. The Mayo Clinic removed it did a sentinal node test and said everything was clear. He didn't have any scans follow up was to check yearly with dermatologist which is what he did. Do not take this disease lightly as there is no cure. If we could change anyhting we would have demanded a scan. Please wear sunscreen and get any moles checked that you are worried about. We hear so much about prostate cancer and breast cancer I wish there was as much literature about melanoma out there however you can be sure our new cause will be get more information out about this deadly disease.
