After I had the surgery I blogged about last month I learned the mass was cancer. I have a very rare form of skin cancer called DERMATOFIBROSARCOMA PROTUBERANS. I have since had a second surgery this month and need a third one called Mohs micrographic surgery next month. This surgery is named for the doctor who created it many years ago. There is a silver lining,however, in that this cancer only metastasizes in 1%-5% of cases. I wanted to share this with all of my readers to get the word about this rare disfiguring cancer. Mine is in my left forearm,which is pain in the bum since I'm left handed. This is not my first battle with cancer either. I Hodgkin's Lymphoma in 1999. I had several operations,biopsies etc. and 6 months of chemo. I will beat this just as I beat that with my lord and savior Jesus Christ by my side. I will see my oncologist on September 14th and will blog again about this after that. But, rest assured that I will still be blogging missing kids no matter what. These kids are MY kids since I have none of my own.
This blog is dedicated to all my passions thus the name. My main passions are: Genealogy,Chris Jericho and My missing and murdered children's site and volunteer work in the area of missing and unidentified people for Lighting The Way Home.
