        Interesting advice Debbie.  In reading the initial discussion concerning interferon, it seems like you are the one who might need to "toughen up a bit if you can't take hearing our treatments suck".  You were the one who seemed all in a dither and accusing others of "bashing" your treatment.  Bubbles didn't go "on and on" about how she wouldn't do interferon.  She gave her opinion, experience and decisions.  She did this in a kind and non threatening manner. I find your response to that inappropriate and unwelcoming to a relatively new member who has a lot to share about new advances in melanoma treatments. I find your comments above inappropriate as well, especially the part about having stuff going on in your life that does not include cancer.  Lucky you!  I'm afraid that many on this board live and breathe cancer all day, every day.
