My prayers for a successful surgery and a speedy recovery!
My Dad has had 5 pre-cancerous lesions removed so far - just waiting for my time to come for that also. My skin is very fair and I sunburn so easily. I have had some really bad sunburns in my lifetime.

Thank you :hugs It's scary and horrible, but I'm so grateful at the same time that people like me and your dad can have these things identified and removed before they kill us. Are you getting your skin checked now and then? Mine was the result of getting sunburned a few times when I was young. Back then we thought it was just part of growing up…

It's a very long wait, but I learned to put it out of my mind as best I can, until the results are due. Otherwise I'll drive myself crazy.

My attention span is a joke at the moment. I don't know if it's because I'm tired, but I struggle to concentrate on anything for longer than a minute or two.

I'm resting and relaxing as much as I can. Housework doesn't care about people needing time off though. I asked DS to do the dishes and clean the kitchen. Ended up doing it all myself after he managed to almost make a bigger mess than he started with.

I made sure I have plenty wine for the week ;) It's lovely to relax with in the evening.

For skin cancers I use a black salve made from bloodroot. I was able to find someone through a friend who made and sold me a small vial of it. I don't know the recipe, wish I did. I don't think it works on melanoma, but it sure takes out "sun spots" or skin cancers.

I talked about it on this thread several years ago.
