...oh yeh sunburn, that thing.
At the moment I sit here with 6 red welts on my face and neck from the frozen oxide used to burn off sun spots that if left untreated will grow into cancers over the next 20 years.
I do this painful event every 6 months along with a toe to fingertip examination in my jocks.
Last March I had two melanomas removed.
Had I not gone to have them checked at the time I had a basal cell carcinoma removed I would most likely be dead today or on my way.
I am 46.
The last time I was sunburnt to the point of blisters was when I was 18.
Don't get sunburnt.
Ever.
freaky thing.
