Skin Cancer (get checked early)
Hey All
Just a reminder, especially to the younger folks, if you’re working in the field, stay on top of you skin cancer checks (most insurance covers at least 1 a year)
I’m 48 and have had 11 surgeries now in the last 2 years. And I’ve ALWAYS worn the big straw hat and long sleeves, etc…
Reason I mention this is that dermatologist told me this was all old damage that could have easily been treated and avoided surgery if I caught it earlier.
But I was the Invincible young guy that didn’t pay no mind to that nonsense. So yeah, I FAILED and paying the price now.
Yeah, im a ginger, so more susceptible to get it, but also have an older dark skin Filipino coworker with a bunch also, and know a fair amount of others as well.
Get checked early!!!
