      Janner,

      I just read your story and I must say — Oh dear, you are one tough lady, a true warrior. Good for you for having been so attentive to your body. I was terrified at first thinking what a sneaky desease melanoma really is and so persistent,  too. While reading, I started thinking there must be something wrong with your body for so many melanomas to pop up so often, not to mention the less dangerous cancer, squamous cell carcinoma on your forehead. Then I came to the part where you found out you were genetically predisposed for these illnesses.

      I just want to say that I am sorry you are going through so much in life but at the same time I want to encourage you to never give up. I wish you all the best for now and I will share later the results of my visit to the derm.

      Thanks for your reply. Your feedback is much appreciated. A biopsy is what I intend to do — it's just that the earliest appointment to the dermatologist is in about 3 weeks. I am not quite sure I should wait that long.
