Default Re: Sun Screen or Skin Cancer?
Skin cancers are no fun. I hope all goes well.

Like Sidney, I'm a melanoma survivor (1995 for me). I know that if my oncologist could see me right now, he'd be screaming. Even with sunscreen applied liberally and diligently, I have managed to get some sun which has developed into a very lovely tan since moving here. It looks great, but it concerns me. (At least none of it has come from a burn.)
