I would just like to point out that Mihai Sucan, a wonderful developer that worked on the Mozilla Developer Tools, passed away in April of this year due to the skin cancer this disease often leads to. I had the privilege of knowing him.

You can read his blog here: http://mihai.sucan.ro/mihai/blog

His twin brother is still fighting.

I am very glad to see that a great medical research center such as Stanford is doing work to heal this disease. If you want to make a donation this year, please consider them. Mihai also wrote about donating in his last blog post.
