Roger Died from his Melanoma. He had to stop Successful Opdivo Infusions due to Problems caused in his Liver.

Roger kept getting weaker and weaker. He was hospitalized, the sent to a rehab, then to another hospital due to breathing trouble, then home to die in 2 days. It was a quick ending to an honorable and graceful life. He was in his 80's, but until he had Melanoma - he seemed very young and strong.

God bless you all. Keep fighting and exchanging information. Roger's Oncologist never interacted

after he was first hospitalized. No word from her or anyone at Penn Medicine. Take care.

Carol, I'm so sorry to read this news. And I'm sorry Roger's onc (Schucter?) at Penn didn't contact you - that is not right. I hope you are ok and have people by your side. Warmly, Nadia
