        Hi- first off sorry for your husbands condition. I was just diagnosed with stage 2 and waiting to see if it spread anywhere. I am totally freaked out and with kids coming next month, I spend time reading everything I can online about this. I read there are some gene therapy trials in Germany (EU) that have been very sucessful, this may be something worth reaching out for. 

        My dermatologist said not to worry since they have great drugs out now, but apparently they dont work for many people so how can they be great. 

        I wish you the best on your search.
