Rock and Roll Saved My Soul

Life with Skin Cancer  by Lori McBroom  Tuesday, August 29th, 2018 - Got a biopsy on my nose. Had to wait a few weeks to hear back from my dermatologist. Got a phone call telling me I had skin cancer or mohs. Had to make an appointment to get it removed. Wednesday, October 3rd, 2018 - Went to another dermatologist to go through two rounds of scrapes to remove it from my nose.   Thursday, October 11th, 2018 - Need a skin graft to cover the hole by my nose. Got six stitches on my face. I couldn't go to work the next day because I was on antibiotics for the skin graft.  Wednesday, October 24th, 2018 - Got my stitches removed from my face and no longer have to wear a huge band-aid on my face!  Wednesday, November 14th, 2018 - Got a pouch removed from the skin graft. Just had to wear a normal band-aid. I am real glad this was caught early. I also couldn't sleep very well during this time due to the band-aids over my nose.  ...

The boys came home from school and our oldest went inside did homework and ran out the door to go play. However, our 10 year old was walking slow, not being himself, and complained of a headache. So I gave him some medicine and let him take a nap. When he got up we had his favorite dinner, but he didn’t eat much and still complained about his head hurting. I had figured his sinus infection had come back with a vengeance. So I kneeled down in front of him….looked up at him and noticed this huge lump in his neck. I was determined to find out what this was without telling him what I was seein...
