      That's horrible! I can't imagine going through it myself and then having to worry about my family having cancer too. No one on my moms side has had it. My mom had breast cancer 5 years ago. My dads side is a mystery… I'll get in touch with him and ask. 

      Got my SPF 50 yesterday, never leaving home without it.

      Didn't even think about mapping my moles. If my dermo won't do it, i'll find one that will and also take photos myself. I'll check out the book and website. I definitely have chronic stress, poor diet, lack of exercise and sleep. Improving my immune system should've been a priority before, it absolutely is now. Great advice, thank you!

      Thank you so much! And I will post the pathology report. You've put me at ease a bit, it's been a stressful day.

      I was so shocked that I didn't even ask what stage I am! But I will find out as soon as I hear from the surgeon. I wish you luck!
