        Hi Carolyn: 

        I am so glad to hear that you found treatment quickly and that they have been so proactive.  My best wishes are with you and your family.  It sounds like you are doing well. 

        I agree that you should see someone who specializes in melanoma.   I don't know of any melanoma specialists in BC, but  Dr. Smylie in Edmonton has been discussed on this board and seems very good.  In my family's experience, it was really important to self-advocate in BC and to do what you are doing right now – reaching out to the community.  I think you're doing exactly the right thing. 

        Karen.
