No problem. You are still cared about.

Hi Clover55 (Randy1805),I saw some pretty good responses to your post. In my own case, I’ve had about nine skin cancers treated over the last 7 years, but nothing in the last two years. What seems to be working for me is some of the same things that you are already doing, but a couple of changes.

Of course I wear long sleeve shirts and pants and sunblock. I also wear a really wide brim hat (5 inch all around) that looks a bit comical, but I want to shade my face and neck. I had the windows on my car tinted as much as the law allows. I also go outside only in the morning before the sun is too intense for yard work or for a long walk.

Regarding prostate cancer, my brother got the HDR treatment and he has been cancer free for 5+ yrs. My dad had prostate cancer and the treatment worked for him as well and he lived to be 86.

I know that it sucks to have your looks impacted by the scars, but I have a chunk of my nose out and I got used to it after a while and it got better as it fully healed. Admittedly, in my case, I wasn’t that good looking to start with so it wasn’t that big of an adjustment.

Hang in there.
