Cancer is....

Cancer is cancer is cancer is cancer. Okay, but at least this cancer is not life threatening, right? We officially  found my first of I am sure many more, skin cancers. It is on my left upper arm, where the sun hits when you are driving. Just out of my sight.
I went to my dr to have what I thought was a mole cut off. It had been there for years, but it was hurting me now. He sliced the top off and told me that he couldn't go digging to clean it up because the insurance company's required that a biopsy be done first. If there is no cancer, then the hole will heal up. If it comes back with cancer, then he will have to cut into the arm and dig out the cancer cells.
I got on line and looked at my report and it came back as CSC, I think. It is the most common cancer of all skin cancers. Just cut it out and it will most likely not grow back.
So, now, I have to get another appointment and go back in and have my arm put to sleep and then have the dr. cut it out and stitch me close. Why couldn't he just have done that the first time.
Other then that, life is rolling along. :)
