I'm 45 years old. and I feel as if I''ve been on this cancer journey for so long ( x2 melanoma (1 node) 11 years NED, radiation therapy), other skin cancers (squamous/basal (28 years) and on a check up today, another suspicious mole that the hospital want biopsied. I try to be upbeat but it just gives you a wakeup call to always be vigilent with this disease and to regularly get skin checkups even when you are this long NED. I love life and again whatever happens, I'm prepared for battle.

I love life and again whatever happens, I'm prepared for battle. I believe in being positive and after losing many loved friends on this board, I have to keep fighting for their sake and for me and my family.
I still believe that if you can get this disease early enough you have a good chance of survival, be vigilent.
Thank you for being there all this time and for being the greatest support to me over all these years MPIP.

Sorry that you are stressing. I will keep my fingers, toes and anything else I can cross for you that it is nothing. This fight sucks but you do what you gotta do.
All my best to you
