The Yeti Project is a blog intended for the support of our own yeti, and my husband, Cleve. Cleve is currently battling stage IV melanoma. This is a place where you can check on his status or lend your support. I hope you find it helpful and inspiring as we embark on this long journey of healing

Here we go again
Cleve spoke to DR. Hwu today and the solution that she has come up with is to get Cleve in to see Dr. Ross for surgery to de-bulk the tumor and then in the same visit, a few days later Cleve will start bio-chemotherapy as was planned in early February. After the surgery the tumor will be harvested for TIL cells again and hopefully they won't die upon thawing this time. This would enable him, I THINK, to be a part of the study he was supposed to be in, in the first place. It sounds like this would be happening around mid to end of april, depending on how quick we can get scheduled. Keep your fingers crossed.... and I'll keep you posted, as usual.
