More stuff for me to deal with
I went to the skin cancer doc today after going to my internist, then to my dermatologist to see about this thing on my outer nostril. It had not formed a scab or bled lately and all you could see was a small reddish area between my nostril and cheek. I thought he can cut that off and I'm good. Well it was a bigger area than I thought (about 1/3") that he is going to take off. Thank goodness it is not the melanoma type cancer. I will have to see a plastic surgeon now and arrange to schedule the post surgery for repair. This is my price to pay for laying out in the sun as a teenager years ago. I'm not too afraid of the surgery (well not yet). It's just having to get someone to stay with Larry for 1/2 a day very early in the morning and probably during the week. I hope I can schedule our good caregiver Jim.
Larry said he was sorry I had to go through this. Then he said "Medicare will probably not pay for all of this so I guess the rest will come out of my pocket". LOL Thanks Larry.
It has finally stopped raining here for the afternoon but rain coming for the next few days again. I hope everyone has a happy and blessed Easter.
