Hi! I am loving your blog! I'm newly diagnosed with melanoma on 3/27/12! Awaiting surgery next week. I've enjoyed reading your blog and plan to read the entire thing as soon as I can. Anyway, I wanted to say "Thanks" for your blog. I'm 26 so your blog has already explained so much to me just b/c it's coming from someone in there "twenty-somethings"!
