        thanks for clarifying that for me. So…not a recurrence but a new one becuase the first one was on the shoulder and this is on the leg. This one is larger. Will find out tomorrow when the surgery is. I am doing a lot of reading and reflecting today. Reading some books from Dr. Bernie Siegal…….I didn't share this before but melanoma runs in my family…..my grandfather and my father both had melanoma……Geez….

              the first one was on my shoulder. So this is a new one on my leg. It's actually larger than the one I had the first time. Will keep posting as I find out things. I am actually doing a lot of reading since yesterday and I am actually handling this differently this time. The first time I kept everything to myself and didn't share until it was removed. I am being more open this time.
