Comments on: Minorities can’t escape skin cancer… http://mamistimeout.com/2009/07/06/minorities-cant-escape-skin-cancer/ Sat, 31 Jul 2010 01:42:47 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0 By: Ms. Latina http://mamistimeout.com/2009/07/06/minorities-cant-escape-skin-cancer/comment-page-1/#comment-9666 Ms. Latina Wed, 15 Jul 2009 13:55:09 +0000 http://mamistimeout.com/?p=2250#comment-9666 This was a wonderful post and I am glad that you caught yours in time. I actually have an aunt who battled skin cancer. She found out about it in her mid twenties also. She was treated and the cancer went into remission before traveling throughout her body. She finally passed away from breast cancer in her young 40s. I know I haven't been as vigilant as I should with myself but plan to start. I am, however, very careful with my sons. They always wear a 60 or higher. Thanks for the reminder and the sunblock suggestions! This was a wonderful post and I am glad that you caught yours in time.

I am honestly watching a spot I found on my leg. I know it wasn't there before but I have birth marks and beauty marks all over. I check them periodically to make sure they haven't gotten bigger or bumpier. As soon as I see a change I will definitely call my dermotologist. We really need to be conscious of what is going on with our bodies. This was a great article. I am honestly watching a spot I found on my leg.
