Bio | Hi 51 years old and live in Las Vegas. Dx with melanoma 02/02/2011. Married almost 30 years to a wonderful man named Bill. Daughter age 16 named Gaby. 1-26-2011 Biopsy medial to right knee of pink lesion that had been watched for a couple years and changed last summer when I had an edge frozen because it became “crusty”. Lesion peeled and seemed better. Later in year it looked like it needed to peel again. I picked at it and it started to bleed and never healed. Bx results:Superficial spreading melanoma.
