Another Skin Cancer

As I sit here reading these articles it makes me remember the appointment reminder I received this morning from my dermatologist. I am having a basal cell carcinoma on my arm removed tomorrow morning. The diagnosis of skin cancer doesn't alarm me as much as it once did because it's happened too many times to count. I get checked every three months. There is a family history of skin cancer. Be vigilant about sunscreen usage and skin checks.

  1. We are certainly keeping you in our thoughts as you prepare for your procedure. I am glad you are being diligent with your skin checks--that's so important!


    I hope healing goes quickly and smoothly for you. Please feel free to update us on your progress. Know that this community is here for you!
