Moderna CEO Stephane Bancel told AFP his company's experimental vaccine against melanoma could be available in as little as two years, in what would amount to a landmark step against the most serious form of skin cancer. Globally there were an estimated 325,000 new melanoma cases and 57 ,000 deaths from the disease in 2020. "We think that in some countries the product could be launched under accelerated approval by 2025," he said in an interview.

I just got a call from my dermatologist. I need surgery again on my arm in the next 2-4 weeks/asap. My margins werent clear enough. They need to take out more of my arm. I was given the option of doing it in the office awake again or being referred out to a surgeon and going under general anesthesia. I told her the surgeon and anesthesia are a must. Now I wait for this new Dr’s office to call and schedule me.
I am not okay. So overwhelmed.

Hey hey hey- its MELANOMA AWARENESS MONTH!
Put your sunscreen, hat, longsleeve, full coverage bathing suit, etc on!
April 2016 I had a malignant melanoma removed from my back- I still have a significant scar as a reminder. My husband had a melanoma removed a few years after that and we have been vigilant since.
Unfortunately- I had a mole come back after my last visit as a “severely atypical nevi” and had to have a surgical excision( today). These moles or nevi are not ALWAYS cancer or dangerous- but from what I gather, convert easily to melanoma. Given my sordid history with melanoma- the choice was a 2.5cm surgical incision/ removal. I was grateful it was less than the 11cm from the previous melanoma. However- this one is slap dab in the middle of my abdomen. So now, thanks (likely) to my idiotic youth and bikini choices- I will sport- not a cute bikini- but a large surgical incision on my back from 2016 and a medium sized one on my abdomen from today.
Please- be careful. No matter what beautiful skin tone you are- be careful and get SCREENED.
We can PREVENT two cancers- SKIN and COLON. Be smart and screen regularly for both.

Reminder: You don't need to burn or even tan to have your risk of developing melanoma greatly increased. Often, you can't actually see sun damage with the naked eye.
Always wear sunscreen.
Wearing clothing and hats that cover your skin from the sun, on top of sunscreen, is ideal!

Hello everyone, a quick update on my eye. I go in on Thursday for surgery.
They are doing what's called plaque therapy. It is a small plate with radioactive seeds attached to it. It will be sewn to my eye. I will wear it for four days and it will be removed. If you are squeamish at all. Please don't google it. It looks worse than will actually be. If all goes as planned this will be a one shot surgery and the radiation will break up the tumor. Thank you in advance for keeping me in your thoughts and well wishes.
