Hi all
I have just found and joined the group and looking for help and guidance.
My Partner has been told he has Stage 3 melanoma, Breslow thickness 9.4mm with the cancer spread to his lymph node in the groin area. We were told at his appointment he will have more of the area where his mole was (on his shin) removed, skin graft and lymph node removal and then immunotherapy. We are still waiting on a scan to show if it has spread anywhere else other than the groin lymph node. We were surprised to be given so much of a "plan" at the appointment but grateful for an idea of what the next while will look like. We have not had any meeting with a cancer specialist as yet.... just waiting for the scan appointment.
My question is, have you any advice on how to help my Partner with this news? And what can i do to prepare for what is ahead? What will life look like after surgery?
any help and advice would be gratefully appreciated.
Thanks
