my husband of 25 years passed away in 2003
of nodular malignant melanoma...the
deadliest form of skin cancer. The
picture you sent definately warrents a
look from a Dr., and possibly a dermo, but
it doesn't look to me like melanoma.
Believe me, I've done a lot of research
myself on skin cancers. My husband was
blonde, fair skinned and green eyed, five
of my six children are fair and blonde, so
I am diligent about checking their skin.
I myself am native american and lebanese,
so my skin type is totally different, but
I still check myself. If your spot gets
black at all, bleeds, or keeps changing
characteristics, please see a Dr. I'm
sure local clinics or hospitals will work
with your finiances since you are a
student. Don't wait

better safe than
sorry. We thought it was no big deal too!
