        The therapeutic paradigm shift in #melanoma has been a wonder to behold during the last decade. I still remember giving ipilimumab for the first time, ushering in the immunotherapy era. So glad that your wife and others can benefit from this progress!https://cancerkn.com/pembrolizumab-and-the-president/ …

        Will cancer pain be treated? My cousin just had a double mastectomy for breast cancer. The dr was literally bullying her into having injections instead of regular pain meds. She has no history of abuse or anything. It got to the point where we were going to file a complaint.

        Wow, too awesome! Meaningful to me as my wife @AngProc just finished radiation for the 2nd time and is still on chemo. Never seen anyone fight with a bigger smile. 💪Thank you for sharing.
