My family history is rife with Melanoma and skin cancer issues, and have a skin issue that predisposes us to cancer risk. We are all riddled with little scars from times they've had to "check."
Fortunately, I'm from the side of the family that is more Eastern European, as opposed to my mom's "Irish" skin. I tan without trying, and have to wear at least 50+ to prevent the absorption. I can't seem to avoid tanning.
That being said, I just watched what my mom just went through applying topical chemotherapy to her nose last year, the second time in ten years. Blood, pain, and an open wound on her face for almost two months. And then not knowing if it's going to work?
Combine that with the malignant melanoma scar on her back and I'll take the sunblock please.
