There was a little bump that wasn't going away, and with my history, I found my mind was spending cycles on it, so I had to go have it checked. The dermatologist said it was almost certainly nothing, but given my history, it was best to remove it and biopsy it.<br /><br />I haven't been as nervous about waiting for the results as I was for similar events in the first years after dealing with Merkel Cell Carcinoma. But it's been in the back of my mind... What if I have to fight *that* battle again. What if...<br /><br />But the message on my answering machine when I got home said "benign." There is no more beautiful word.<br /><br />What doesn't kill you <strong>does</strong> make you stronger :-) But you never forget.Maureenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08783404920615182265noreply@blogger.com2
