But first, let me explain how this book came about ... let me take you back to when I first was diagnosed with skin cancer. It was a day that truly changed my life. A Simple Visit To My Doctor That Shattered My World! Recently I went to my General Practitioner for my regular check up. While I was there I mentioned to her that I had a mole on my forearm that had changed shape – it had started to elongate out one side. I supposed it was nothing, but I have an attitude of “better safe than sorry”, so I showed it to her. Her reaction surprised me. She immediately booked me in to have it removed, and when I asked her “why the rush?”, she said “I don’t like the look of it. I want to have it removed and checked out.” I felt a cold “thud” in the pit of my stomach, and the back of my neck started to prickle. I started to fear the worst. I grew up in a small beach-side town, and every summer I would spend days at the beach. With no sun-screen, and a fair complexion, I would burn-and-peel, burn-and-peel. I suddenly felt that maybe things were catching up on me. I was booked in for surgery to remove the mole in 3 days. I went straight home and started surfing the internet for any information on melanoma. I found lots of clinical sites, which spoke about “sentinel lymph nodes” and “melanocytes”. I felt like I was learning a whole new language. I became quite frustrated and confused with the huge volume of information that was there, especially when so much of it was written in medical jargon. I have a PhD in biochemistry, yet I still found the information confusing! Then there were those websites selling all sorts of herbs and potions, and promising miraculous cures. The cynic in me said “I guess if people are desperate they’ll try anything”. I wondered if I would get to the stage of trying these alternative therapies, and if so, how I would choose between them. It was at this stage that a friend told me about a book she had written. She had had personal experience with melanoma (with a family member) and at the time, she explored many options regarding treatment and did a lot of research. She told me that she felt that a comprehensive, user-friendly, non-intimidating and positive book about how to survive melanoma was much needed, and so she had written “How I Survived Melanoma Skin Cancer—seven survivors tell their stories”. Glenda's story was one of these. She also asked me if I’d like to set up a web-site to share this information with others, and which could potentially raise funds for cancer research. I asked her to send me a copy. When I received a copy of the book I was overjoyed. It started with a chapter of Frequently Asked Questions. It gave me well-researched, easy-to-read, plain-English, practical answers to the questions that were going around in my head. Questions like: 1. How do I know if I have melanoma? What are the signs and symptoms? I wanted to know why the doctor was so concerned when she looked at that little mole on my forearm. What was it that looked so sinister? How worried should I be? Was the doctor over-reacting? 2. What tests will the doctor carry out to see if I have melanoma? Will they be able to tell me on the spot
