      Aloha everyone!

      Well, well. Nearly 10 years in the making, and I have an appointment to be seen at UCSF two weeks from today. Just been me and my local surgeon over the years keeping things in order. Produced an all time record for me of 8 In situ’s in the past 10 weeks. Even caught an invasive of .2mm in one of the wide excisions that hadn’t even shown itself. That got all of our attention. I mean I’m pretty good at spotting what I can see popping up, but that was strange.
      Anyway, over the past many years it’s mostly been In situ’s, but time to find out what the heck from a new set of eyes.These wide excisions at this rate are seriously wearing me out. Total so far is about 8 invasive from .83mm-.5mm and every depth in between that, and 18 In situ’s. With about 4 more on me I’ll carry to California so they can see how these are presenting on me, and take it from there.

      All the best to everyone!

      Bob
