I hope this gets through quickly. I have some friends in treatment now and lost my dad to cancer because of cancer medication.

Note that the trial was for “stage IIB–IV melanoma that had been surgically removed prior to entering the trial.”

> lost my dad to cancer because of cancer medication

Please don’t phrase it like this. Loss is hard. But desperate people have skipped treatment because they misread something online.

I lost my dad to cancer because of surgical complications. All of this stuff is risky, and not treating the cancer is a valid choice that some people make. But anybody who reads an anecdote by a quasi-anonymous non-expert had better not base their care plan on that.
