My Mom has fought skin cancer for years and just had surgery for removal of a melanoma. Bless your wife for fighting the monster. I wish you peace in your time of need. Since the goal is to educate, here is another link with general information. http://www.skincancer.org/Melanoma/ The sun is not your friend...protect yourself, and like Mike said, get any suspicious skin issue examined. Prevention is key and early detection is critical. [ Edited by: VampiressRN 2011-08-22 06:17 ]
