Here's hoping for some good news, and it doesn't turn out to be as bad as it may seem at first. But you certainly have the experience to know what you could be dealing with and you have the right attitude, that helps.

Whoa! Norco!! That said George, sorry to hear you’re back in the ring with Melanoma. I know you got this; we can delay the gator wrasslin’ at G’s for a few months. Stay well.

It's probably not Melanoma, Brian, but Basal Cell or Squamous Cell.

I was not previously aware of Squamous Cell Carcinomas. I learned something.

Squamous Cell and Basal Cell Carcinomas are both skin cancer (I've had both removed more than once), but not possibly fatal, like Melanoma, unless very advanced. What I have (or might have, I'm not a Dermatologist) is not fatal. I'll be fine. Trust me. Thanks for your concern, buddy.
