First I send Jim well wishes.
I am a Three time skin cancer survivor. Just had Squamous Cell removed from my right cheek. In 2017 I had Squamous Cell removed from my right cheek also. 2019 found Basal Cell on the back of my neck.

The 2nd Squamous Cell appeared on my cheek in February. I was shaving and began bleeding....assuming I had nicked myself. By mid May it was apparent something was wrong as the lesion was growing. So an unscheduled visit to my dermatologist where a biopsy was completed.

Luckily the lesion was found early and removed early. The stitches were removed some 2 weeks ago....and healing is going well.

I see my dermatologist every 3 to 6 months. At age 71 I feel skin cancer will be forever lurking.
