      Thanks you Janner, I appreciate the reassuring words.  It's hard to gauge just how atypical these moles actually were.  The first two doctors I saw just laughed at my concern; the third immediately ordered excision and biopsy.

      Thank you, I appreciate you sharing your thoughts.  I hope in your case they managed to remove everything – it sounds like they did.

      You're right, of course about the importance of a positive attitude.  In my case it's just a little bit frustrating (and frightening) because the doctors here seem to know so little about melanoma.  Guess there's nothing to do now but wait…
