This book is about a couples struggle with melanoma stage IV cancer. Bobs cancer was discovered during an unrelated chest x-ray looking for signs of work-related mesophilioma. Unable to do a biopsy, he had to have two suspicious spots removed from his right lung. In January of 2012, after the thoracic surgery, we were given the news that Bobs spots were melanoma. We naively assumed they had caught it early since Bob had no symptoms or discomfort, but once melanoma shows up inside the body, it is stage IV. I have written about the year we lived with the news and the complications of cancer until Bobs death in 2013.
