I finally received "the" call from my Dermatologists office. The mole on my cheek was fine, but the small red mark on my arm is cancer. Just great! She said of any cancer this is the best one, since we caught it so early, I have to put a cream on the spot once a day, Monday-Friday. No weekends. She also said this cream is full of "heavy duty" stuff ( I can't spell all the medical terms she used), so my arm will look pretty gross for 6 weeks. Just lovely!!!, but at least this should treat it. I will have to go back for a 6 week check up to make sure the cream did what it was supposed to. The nurse did warn me that the pictures that will accompany my prescription are quite graphic.....AWESOME DUDE!!
She said my arm could get: a rash, be raw, scab over, itch, be really sensitive and flat out look disgusting! Hopefully those of you that see me in the next 6 weeks won't be too grossed out by arm.
*Thanks for all your concerns in your comments, it really means so much to me!

Any kind of cancer can be scary. I'm glad that you caught it so early. I hope the cream works and maybe it will be a little cooler and you can wear long sleeves!
Thanks for the warning, I will for sure stay away ha ha!! I'm glad that they caught it early and will be able to treat it.
I hope the cream takes care of it for you. I will help you out by not looking at you for at least six weeks.
Scarey! Good thing you are keeping an eye on things though! Hope you are okay - call me if you feel the need to go tanning or something :)
scary! That is very lucky that you caught it early enough. I seriously doubt any one will be grossed out at all! Every one loves you and I don't think any one will even notice!
Seriously, how stinkin cute are your girls in that pic on your header! Love them! I am sorry to hear about your arm, but at least its the best kind to have right! You have inspired to get a couple questionable moles to get checked! If anyone asks about your arm..just say its battle wounds..they wont mess with you! See you later today! :)
I am glad that you noticed it and can get it taken care of. Don't worry you are still beautiful!
