For Jeff and Wendy
I have been having some trouble with a couple of moles for a while now--just couldn't get time to go have them checked. I had been thinking of going and getting it done,putting it off-like we all do. Today on MSN is said" Today is National Melanoma Day" and I thought of you two and what you went thru. So I called my Doctor--he had an open appointment(on Monday? shock huh?) I went and he removed the 3 that were bothering me. He said he thought they were ok but that I did the right thing to have them checked.I was sure relieved. I told him " I did this for my friend Wendy and her husband Jeff--He lost his life to this kind of cancer" My doctor said I did the smart thing ! So thank you both-Wendy for reminding us to all get checked and Jeff who will live on in our hearts and we will think about everytime we get checked. Anyone else out there that goes to get checked be sure you say "Thanks" to Jeff and Wendy" I sure did

Good for you!
So far, I haven't had any! Glad yours were ok
@KarensPotpourri2 - Me too Karen but I was sure scared to get them checked--thinking about Jeff and Wendy gave me the courage !
@TheSunnyC - I think cancer is something that scares us all to death !
@Maggietx1 - It sure does. Wil goes for his last scope before checking out with the oncologist next week....at least we are praying it is the last visit.
@TheSunnyC - and I'm praying with you and for Wil. -I'm 5 years cancer free and want to stay that way !!!
Good for you hon....:)....ryc: The weather here has been quite nice but still no rain just very dry...have a blessed evening
.
@Mymanyblessings - we got a nice slow rain here today--wish the same for you
Hi honey. I have some moles, too which bother me. I'm waiting to get them
checked. I know they can be cancerous, but I don't have any extra money right now.
You did the right thing. I'm glad, it's turned out, ok. Yep, I keep busy, it
seems. Keep hoping and praying for my kids. Hugs, Riding_Hood
@Riding_Hood - Bless your heart--just keep an eye on them and don't forget sometimes you have to do things for YOU too !!! My insurance paid for mine thank God
Indeed ,maggie, you did the rght things . Those moles may become mad . Jeff experienced this , sadly .
Love

Well Maggie when you don't hear from me you know what happened. I could just kick xanga in the posterior! Worse why I don't remember people write, check em!
Glad all is well on the mole front.
@BLB - They dont notify me any more either--I just try to check everyones blog a couple of times a week.
Glad you had the moles taken care of. Cancer can be a sneaky thing. I'm coming up in November of 5 yrs cancer free from breast cancer. You know we 'seasoned ladies' have to take care of ourselves.
@thistlepatch - Good for you ! I think I'm at the 6 year mark now--funny as time has passed-I dont count it in days anymore--guess thats part of healing huh??? Good for us both--we are strong survivors !!!
That's a good reminder dear,
I really should go in and have a complete
physical anyways,, it's been too many years.
Know what? I miss you, and love you dearly.

Hi Maggie, well one day, I'll get the moles, off. Lol! I just don't have money now.
