I was diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma yesterday. [View all]

Never had cancer of any kind. The skin tag was removed. About the size of a nickel. But protruded about 1/4 of an inch. It was painful to touch and I kept hitting it on furniture and bed posts. I was so glad the dermatologist removed it. I will probably have to have more cut away after testing confirms. Needless to say I was frightened and still nervous about it.
But I did laugh on my way to town today. As soon as I turned on the car radio to listen to some relaxing classical music, Chopin's Funeral March started playing. I do have a dark sense of humor and in some way I think maybe it was the gods playing a joke on me. But it did make me laugh and hum to the main theme. Da da da dum da da da
da dum da dee.
