Light Skinned Mother: August 2013
http://lightskinnedmother.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 20, 2013. In June, I had CT scans of my head, neck, chest, etc. And I waited for the results. I spent 2 hours in the waiting room at the office of my former surgeon. In that time, I looked around and starting feeling sorry for myself. Here I was, this youngish woman with two young kids, sitting there in a waiting room with people who are all over 70, discussing their experiences and treatments with cancer. Why me? After all, life is more than melanoma. Passed away. There I was, a teac...

Light Skinned Mother: April 2013
http://lightskinnedmother.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 1, 2013. When Life Hands You Scars. That was me, a year ago from last night. I was in New York City- my favorite place in the entire world. That was before my diagnosis and the after effects of realizing that death may be closer than I expected. Wow, I am always amazed at how big my nostrils are. My husband and I both like Tony Robbins and, of course, who DOESN’T like Oprah? He values money over looks. Guess he wasn’t very focused when he chose me. ;). Of course, it is totally worth the sac...

http://embracingmyownglow.blogspot.com/2014/12/life-changes.html
Embracing My Own Glow. Wednesday, December 17, 2014. You are in your prime years. You have a wonderful family, friends and life is good. Everyone is healthy and happy. Then suddenly one day, you get a phone call. "I'm sorry, but your test came back, and you have cancer. You are lucky though, because it was caught early, but you do have to have one more surgery because they cannot rule out a tumorous spread" You are crushed. Embracing My Own Glow.

Embracing My Own Glow: Round 2
http://embracingmyownglow.blogspot.com/2013/06/round-2.html
Embracing My Own Glow. Saturday, June 8, 2013. I have been wanting to write about recent events, but when I have the time, my mood hasn't been right. I have been on an emotional roller coaster since this happened, and I knew that some of those emotions needed to be shared in a more constructive way than I was prepared to do at that time. He walked in and barely looked at it and told me that it didn't set off warning bells, but since I said it was changing, and with my history, he wanted to biopsy it....

Black is the New Pink - Fight Melanoma: Melanoma Awareness...It's That Simple!
http://blackispink.blogspot.com/2015/04/melanoma-awarenessits-that-simple.html
Tuesday, April 28, 2015. Melanoma Awareness.It's That Simple! After my brother passed away from Stage IV melanoma, I had questions; simple questions really. What is melanoma? How does one get it? How does one prevent it? How can I know if I have melanoma? If I was to imagine a conversation to summarize the message and opposition, it would probably go something like this:. Me: Melanoma is a skin cancer…. Them: Oh thank goodness! What is good about that? But you can just cut the melanoma out…right? Yes, I ...

Embracing My Own Glow: 5 Years NED - Scars
http://embracingmyownglow.blogspot.com/2015/07/5-years-ned-scars.html
Embracing My Own Glow. Thursday, July 16, 2015. 5 Years NED - Scars. After the excision, I had to keep pressure on my forehead for 24 hours. She hit a vessel, and this would keep it from forming a blood pocket underneath. My bandages went from my eyebrow to my hair line. I didn't know what to expect. I knew I had 3 stitches, but were they close together or far apart? After 24 hours when I changed the bandage, I was shocked. It was just over the width of my index finger! I was so happy. View my complete p...

Embracing My Own Glow: January 2013
http://embracingmyownglow.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Embracing My Own Glow. Saturday, January 19, 2013. He said we would be needing our sunscreen for the next few days. There's no point to that story, just events that were on my mind this morning. I have been contemplating the title of my blog along with the direction it um. hasn't been going. I have loved the pale movement that we are seeing in celebrities along with all the postings sharing that. Previously tan celebrities are now embracing their natural skin tone. They are all beautiful. Welcome to The ...

Embracing My Own Glow. Tuesday, April 16, 2013. Life in situ is a very strange and confusing place to be. Ok, lets get this sucker cut out and move on with life. But wait! There was more. What is this about seeing her every few months? It's gone. That's when I began doing research. Why have I never gone for any kind of scan beyond a skin screening with my dermatologist?
