Moles
Not so patiently waiting on the results of a weird looking mole that Blake had removed on Friday. It looked suspiciously like melanoma because it was a dark bluish black color. But it was also tiny and round.
Skin cancer in kids is rare, especially dark skinned kids like Blake, who also always wear sunscreen and has no family history. But it can happen so we wait to see. And if it is, hopefully we caught it early.
Check your kiddos!

Said a prayer for you all. I hope it’s nothing. DS had to get one removed last year that just came up on his arm. Scared me too. Let us know how things work out.
