            thanks for the responses everyone!

            i am very aware of the risk factors for melaonma as my husband has quite a few of them – he has had basal cell, has over 100 moles, has light hair/eyes, and has now had two atypical moles, so he is at a very increased risk of developing melanoma in his lifetime.

            for those that say to calm down or not worry – i think that is a lot easier said than done, especially when you are in a room as someone takes their last breath from dying from this disease.
