Did you Know?

Melanomas are the most aggressive type of skin cancers? Did you know men die twice as fast as women from this disease? Did you know the location of the melanoma is important, because the risks increase if the melanoma is on the neck or head versus the extremities? Did you know melanomas are the only type of skin can which can metastasize? Basal and squamous skin cell cancer are located deeper into the skin system, but they do not travel? How much more do you not know about this common deadly disease?

Very scary disease that knows no limitations. If only we knew 20 years ago what we know now.
