I'm glad you caught it early! Glad to hear the dermatologist thinks it's a quick fix. Good luck with the procedure.

Hey Blast,

Welcome to the skin cancer club. Us white boys that grew up in TX often have a problem with that. Fortunately, mine was just a basal cell carcinoma, which isn't terribly aggressive.

I got a cool scar on my back to show for it, and an annual appointment with my dermatologist for the rest of my life.

Hope your surgery goes well, and it doesn't keep you off your feet too long.

Greg

Thanks for the heads up Blast. I've been mainly watching my neck, ears, forearms (areas that are most exposed to the sun.

I knew it could crop up anywhere but like a dummy I only look at the "hot spots"

Glad you caught it small.

Okay, due to popular (not to mention sick and twisted) demand, pictures of my foot surgery are now up on my blog.

-Blast, a bloody example to others

Thanks for the well wishes everyone. The report came back clean, as far as the lab can tell the doc managed to remove everything. There is much joy in the Blast household!
