        Michael, 

        Thank you for your reply.  Her dermatologist does mole mapping, but I want to really, really, really be proactive about this thing.  I think our digital camera, a ruler, and a few body/mole charts will be the way to go.

        Thank you for the insight regarding the SNB.  It is reassuring to hear that she may be OK for now.  I am a numbers/statistics guy, I trust science and math, and it is great to hear that only 8% have > 1 primary.  With her being female, and us catching it early, I really believe the numbers are on our side.

        I appreciate the information.
