Hi Pirrip,

Welcome to Cancer Chat. It sounds like your family are going through a lot and I hope you're getting on OK.

We have information on our website about stage 3 melanoma, in case this is helpful at all.

I'm not sure how much information you've received from the medical team so far - you mention it is early stages of treatment. If you're waiting to hear more then I hope it's not long to wait.

Your sister's doctor will of course be best placed to advise in terms of what to expect.

Hopefully this forum can be of some support to you as well. There will be others here with similar experience and so hopefully you'll get some more replies to your post soon. You can also use the search bar at the top of the page to find other relevant discussions and people to connect with, if you'd like to.

We're always here whenever you may need it.

Wishing you all the best,

Ben

Hi Pirrip,

I've been a Stage 3 melanoma patient for several years so I'm happy to answer any questions if that helps. If you wish to chat privately just send me a friend request, otherwise ask away on this thread. I wish your sister all the best,

Angie (Stage 3 melanoma patient since 2009)
