Gloria, I am so grateful to you both for blazing this trail for all who are still to come and who hopefully will one day benefit from Immunotherapy. Without people like John, new treatments would never get off the ground.
I'm sorry John has not benefitted himself and wish him well on the next phase of his treatment.
Time to readjust your sails.
