Prayers Please!

Yesterday I took a day off work to go visit a Dermatologist.  Four years ago I had a mole removed that was found to be Stage 2 Melanoma.  I had surgery on my lower left leg that now leave a huge hole document this journey.  Luckily all cancer was removed.  After the whole melanoma debacle I feared going back to the doctor because I just "knew" something else would be found.  So it's taken me four years to reach a point where I knew I needed to see a specialist and have my skin checked out.

My awesome hairdresser recommended a place about 45 minutes from my house.  I thought I'd give it a try.  BOY AM I GLAD I DID!!  I walked into the small office yesterday not knowing what would be found or what the dermatologist might say after checking me.  I ended up having 6 more moles removed (for a total of 21).  She didn't seem to think any of them were as serious as the last.  She sent all of them off for a biopsy just to be sure and said I would know something within 2 weeks. 

I'm asking for prayers that all tests come back cancer free!  If any of you have a "weird" place on your skin anywhere PLEASE take the time to visit a good dermatologist.  Life is too short to take any chances!
