Well we are circling into the final words - cancer alphabet soup that I wrote over 2 years ago when I was was diagnosed with St 3 nodular Melanoma.  Each word has so much meaning and I hope inspiration for others!   If you have time take a look at a few previous posts 

I-Immunotherapy.  
the game changer for saving lives.  James Allison in Houston at MD Anderson researched for years as he developed a therapy where our bodies would put our immune systems into full gear recognizable and destroy cancer cells.  Because of his teams work many of our patients and fellow warriors have a chance for life.

President Jimmy Carter had metastatic  brain melanoma years ago and he is still alive today because of immunotherapy.  Cancer patients from all over the world with many types of tough cancers to treat are alive today!  

James Allison   I thank you!   On a side note this guy plays a mean harmonica. there is a movie telling his story that is available. Check it out!  

Even  though I embark on the next chapter of my journey I know that my chances for survival are much greater.  For this I am grateful.  
MD Anderson research - James Allison. He is truly a hero! 

If you know someone getting cancer treatments and struggling ask about immunotherapy. The results are astounding!    

Beat of Health ALL .   Please wear a mask!  Covid is just insane and too many people are dying.  Not political but public health!
