Bio

My husband was diagnosed with metastatic malignant melanoma on 22nd December 2012. He is 41. We live in Goa, India. They have found no evidence of the primary site. They removed removed 20 lymph nodes in an axillary lymph node dissection in January and found cancer in one node with no spread to further tissue. This was after a lymph node biopsy of the removal of two nodes in December. We are now looking at what to do next.
