Terri's Journey:

Went every month for a year , across the country to National Institute of Health. I received the treatment over a 3 week period in November, 2011.

It was a horrible experience. I went to Kaiser Riverside in 2010.

I made it to my 30th anniversary.

Right lung removed due to cancer spread. Lymph node dissection.

I feel I need to rest while my cancer is "stable". There is little they can do.

Right middle lung removal and left buttock tumor. It was really big and it made my left leg hurt.

Found a large lump on my left arm. Biopsy pending. Positive for melanoma . Melanoma found in right buttock. Surgery removes a pound or so melanoma tumor.

Two softball sized tumors removed yesterday

Two softball sized melanomas removed: one on left arm, one on right thigh.

I am taking Yervoy. I have not completed course yet. Next week will be 3rd dose.

Huge melanomas removed from left arm and right leg. Over a pound of tumor removed. Dr. Said it was fat. Oops.
