        I am new to the boards, but wanted to tell you thanks for sharing your good news.  Your story is inspiring!  It has only been a few months, but TIL hasn't seemed to work just yet for my husband.  Looks like we are headed in the IPI direction next.  He is feeling lousy from the radiation.  We expected that, but didn't expect it to be quite this exhausting.  We are frustrated he is feeling bad and worried about choosing ipi or the braf route.  I read your post and it all became clear that we were going the right direction with ipi and that there was hope.  Thanks for offering that at such a difficult time 🙂  Here's to many more NED annis for you both!  Cheers 🙂
