      There is a article on the FB Melanoma .org.   Called detecting melanoma early.  I looked the comments and saw this one… cannot state this enough–despite all the photos you see online, most people, and most doctors, CANNOT identify melanoma GO TO A DERMATOLOGIST. THIS HAS A 100% KILL RATE AFTER A CERTAIN STAGE. They don't even bother with chemo.     

       

      Why  would someone say this.  Basically we all will die from this

          Well someone is obviously not informed on survival rates and new treatments. Sometimes ignorance is not bliss. Thankfully we all know better and there are many fighting and winning.

           

          with all due respect, it's probably best not to repost on an informative up lifting forum.
