I was diagnosed with stage 3D melanoma in May 2026 at 39.

I relate and understand this better than I wish I did. I watched my mom fight so hard, going through chemotherapy, but eventually succumbing to Ovarian cancer in 2011.

It’s a heavy burden, even as few families are unharmed by cancer.

Personally what I find burdening is the access, and cycling through immunotherapies and targeted therapies. PET/MRI screenings often. Recently had a lesion punched from my primary forearm site’s scar-bed requiring three sutures.

AIM at melanoma, an Apple Watch, Apple Health, Claude, Google Calendar, Granola, NCCN, and Outcomes4U, have been incredibly helpful.

Fuck cancer. Never stop fighting.

I have a GoFundMe, but I’m unsure if it’s permissible.
