Warmington Walking Miles for Melanoma

I was diagnosed in May 2022 , at age 35, with stage 2 Malignant Melanoma after a changing mole was removed and biopsied. I opted to have a further surgery to test the local lymph nodes, which came back clear. Unfortunately in Oct 2022, I developed a lump in the groin, which was biopsied and showed Melanoma cells. I had my third surgery in February 2023 to remove the lymph nodes. Sadly, the follow up scan showed more melanoma in the groin and spread to the lungs. This puts me at stage 4, meaning I have an incurable cancer and need to start Immunotherapy. Without the development of immunotherapy there would have been no hope, but due to years of research and development I have the chance to spend many more years with my beautiful children.
