I am sorry to read that.
My sister survived malignant melanoma and she is doing well now.
If you are having a tough time coping, see if you can find a support group for Cancer Survivors and their Families. My sister went to one at her hospital and found it very helpful. They may have one at the hospital that your grandma goes to?

Also, there is a trial drug out there called 'Interferon'.
You might want to see if your Grandma's oncologist is aware of this. My sister used it and did not have to have chemotheraphy.
It worked and she has been skin-cancer free since 1998.

Your grandma needs you and your family members around her right now...make sure that you are spending time with her and just enjoying each other's company. She needs to know how much you all love her!

Good luck to you, God Bless and Stay Strong!
