I would appreciate your prayers.
My wife has a habit of looking in my head like a mother monkey.
I guess there was a reason.
She found a spot & insisted I go to the dermatoligist.
I did Friday & he sent it off for biopsy.
It will be 10 days before I will know anything.
I know there is power in Prayer.
He did not seem to concerned but 3 shots in the head & ZAP he took it off.
Actually it really did not hurt & he did it so quick I did not have time to run.
I just hope & pray it's not melanoma.
I don't have enough fingers & toes to count all the times I have burned & blistered & peeled.
Thanks in advance.

Hope you are okay and that the results come back negative. You have the right attitude. It is disconcerting to find moles and growths that are of concern to a doctor, whether or not we are on treatment.

Doc, My thoughts and my prayers are with you and your wife. I'm thinking positive and hoping for the best. Good luck for you both...

Doc, I too burned and had sun poison, and spent every summer baking my fair Irish skin to leather.....until I started having all kinds of pre-cancerous things zapped off....one had to be cut out and biopsied like yours....thankfully, none have been cancerous yet, and I'm finally staying out of the sun....hooray for self-tanners! I hope your results turn out fine....let us know and you're in my prayers.

Thank you all.
I think there was a song that had a line in it that went like this.

If I'd of known that I was gonna' live this long I'd of taken better care of myself.
Those pretty girls I gave em all a whirl but I could'nt leave that whiskey on the shelf.

Yea thinking back on all those days in the sun baking at the local pool from open til closing trying to get that coppertone tan ( WHO KNEW ) AH but those were the good ol' days for sure.
