My prayers are with you too, Whatevergirl.

I had a small melanoma removed from my back a few months ago. The deal is, keep out of the sun or use sun screen! (Not you, Whatevergirl, the others that are reading this, I know you know.)

The good news for basil cell is that it rarely spreads. Good luck and I hope you get a good looking surgeon so you can gaze into his eyes while he does his stuff!

Aw, thank you…this is a very sweet prayer. It’s not a hospital, but an outpatient something or other. lol:rolleyes: I just wished that I used sun screen all those years I sun bathed and surfed on the beach! (Yes, I used to surf) LOL!😃

I ask God to help you get through the surgery without anxiety, and that you don’t suffer much discomfort and recover soon.
 
There is skin cancer in my family (my father had a melanoma when he was still in medical school,😦 ) so I am inclined to stress out over skin growths–Fortunately, the very serious ones are pretty rare. I have fair skin and blue eyes, however, so I have the kind of skin that is susceptible to dangerous skin cancers.

Try not to worry too much. You should be fine. I think I read in one of your posts that you are Italian. Do you have dark skin, and have you been a sun-worshipper in the past? At any rate, basal cell carcinomas are slow-growing as you pointed out–but you might want to start slathering on the sunblock when you go outside from now on!🙂

Praying for you, Dear!

Thank you so much! I actually have pretty fair skin and green eyes for an Italian girl! My mom was irish, so I must have inherited her side, more than my dad’s. My sister is darker, with brown eyes…so she hasn’t had too many problems, but I told her to go get a full body checkup every year. I was amazed at how thorough they are with the full body–holy cow!😊 😛 I really don’t want to go through that again…kind of like you’re on stage or something…:o

Thank you to you too matthew for your prayers.

I appreciate them everyone…!

I humbly ask you guys to please pray for me…I will be having skin surgery tomorrow morning at 8am. I asked Mary for her prayers today, and at mass last night. It’s not major surgery (I had a mole removed a while ago, and it came back positive for basal cell carcinoma, a slow growth skin cancer) but still. I’m a little nervous. I know Jesus will take care of me, no matter what. I should fear nothing.

Thank you for your prayers. You’re the best.

Oh good to know–and did you end up with a scar at all? How long were you wearing a bandage? If it weren’t on my face, I really probably wouldn’t be fretting.😊
 
Good luck, Whatevergirl! I will be praying for you tomorrow! :gopray:
 
Wow, I’m seeing some familiar faces I haven’t seen in ages…like YOU Sam! How have you been? Thank you for your prayers. Have a holy and blessed Christmas season.🙂

Thanks WG! May you have a blessed Advent and Christmas too! 🙂 Have you seen my ticker? 😉
 
Ok WG, I just gave my guardian Angel the rest of the night off and sent him your way. He’s bringing my prayers with him as well.

God bless.

JP
