This is the one I wish I knew 60 years ago. I have had to undergo several
surgeries to remove skin cancer just in the last year. I am still recovering from my last mohs surgery and it looks like I will have a significant scar.
Hubby went through the mohs surgery yesterday in Rochester. If we would of only known way back then about skin cancer. It is bad stuff but at least they can do something about it now. They only had to cut hubby once, after removing & looking at the tissue, & then sewed him up (13 stitches) They got it all is what they said. He has to go back in six months for a full body check. Another guy that was waiting had to go back in they didn't get it all. They have you sit in the waiting room with a guaze over the incision while they check the tissue & if cancer cells are in the tissue they remove more until they get it all. I can see where you would have a good size scare plus it takes up to a year for it to completley heal.
