Kevin had a good Christmas and New Year with his family. Shortly after the New Year, he developed new subcutaneous nodules in both thighs and pelvis. They are causing considerable pain, and making it difficult for him to walk. He is undergoing radiation treatments to these sites of disease. For pain, he has an implantable epidermal pump that is keeping the pain under control. Kevin does not want to undergo any further therapies. Kevin finished his vaccine therapies in November of 2008. None of the old lesions have recurred, but he has multiple new subcutaneous lesions. The lesions in the pelvis and thigh are causing the most problems especially pain.
