You know I love publicity on this nasty disease. Especially the "good kind." The kind about the risks and how melanoma is "real cancer." So I was thrilled tonight when surfing the web for news, I found a front page article on MSN.com about the increase of melanoma in young women. I know all my melanoma warriors out there have probably seen it, but it's the fact that some people who think the tan is still worth it might see this article. That's what makes me smile. A life might be saved because of this article and its national prominence today. That person may never know who they are and that is wonderful because I'd never wish this disease on my worst enemy.
Here's the article link:
