Bio

I was diagnosed with stage lllA melanoma on my scalp from a mole, and micro met activity in one neck lymph node after a second opinion (very small amount) I didn’t get a neck dissection because my doctors felt it wasn’t necessary, and has no benefit. Two months later I crushed 4 rounds of Ipi and worked out every day with no issues. Then a month later I was diagnosed with Graves’ disease…bummer. Currently still recovering and was able to keep my job in the military after all that craziness.
