Skin Scare, Part II

So it’s been almost a year since my skin scare. I thought that this event in my life was my get out of jail free cars and served to remind me to always wear sunscreen. Apparently not.

On Friday night as I was preparing to head out for a night on the town, I noticed something on my back. Thinking back on my doctor’s appointment last year, I recalled my doctor telling me to watch that specific spot on my back to see if it changed in any way. Unfortunately, I can’t see that spot on my back very so it made it a little difficult for me to keep an eye on it. But hey, no excuses, I should have had someone else keep an eye on it.

Anyways, I had some friends look at it and then described the spot to my doctor, who said to come in immediately. So now I get to go back to the doctor and have this stupid skin scare all over again.

Last time she said that if I had left the spot alone for a few more weeks, it would have become cancerous. I’m not taking any chances this time.

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend and I’ll talk to you soon!
