Thread: 7 skin cancers, one possible melanoma

I thought it'd take a bit more than that to knock an old salt, like you, over.
Look after yourself Bob, get well soon.

We're all here for you if you need us, Mate

Can't be easy getting that news, don't let it get the better of you. Wishing you the best.

I have a few mates that have had a few cancers on the skin. One of them was pretty much told to prepare for the worst.. But he beat that sucker.

Wishing the best outcome for ya..

Geez Bob that's crap. Hope it goes well for you mate.

Eleven years ago I was diagnosed with a melanoma on my ear. Six hour operation, minus most of my right ear and a lot of lymph nodes in my neck - I'm still here. Another skin cancer removed from my leg a few months ago - can't remember the type, one of the less common ones.

Bob, my sincerest best wishes for a good end result. Its very scary and incredibly **** stuff, I hope you can let us know when the biopsy results come back.

Thanks for the kind words. I'm sure things will be ok. It's just I've seen too many mates fall off the perch with obscure cancers that it is very difficult not to fear the worse. Agent Orange is a dirty word. My confidence is back, I'm thinking positive about the biopsies, I'll be OK.
