It's been quite a saga. Starting with badgering the dermatologist to remove the first bump in 2014, then him refusing to ask the pathologist the questions I wanted answers to, which ultimately led to me watching carefully. (He was fired very quickly.)

The next one has humored me and removed regrowths from the first one 3 times (although they are calling this a new/different tumor, even though it is in the same place they have repeatedly operated - I'm not necessarily convinced it is distinct, but that doesn't really matter since I have not trusted this spot since 2014. ANYTHING that grows there is spotted immediately and taken out. Which is why I'm looking at ~90% chance of 5 year survival rather than 50%.

Hope your daughter continues to be NED.
