Brief Answer:
There are treatments who would fight the cancer. Don't lose hope.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thank you for using Healthcaremagic to post your health query.
I am sorry for the bad news that you got.
Anyway, I would encourage you to not lose heart. Nowadays many treatments exist, even for the worst of problems.
You will need to follow up with a local oncologist, who would remove the melanoma and also depending on the stage of spreading they may recommend chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
Yes, the treatment is not easy, but people have lived 20 years and more (by surviving cancer more then 3-4 times), and sometimes even died from natural causes.
The most important thing is that you keep high your moral and encouragement to continue the treatment and fight this problem.
Hope this is helpful.
Let me know if you need more clarifications.
Regards,
Dr. Papaqako
