What the?


I've had some warts on my feet for the last little while and a freckle on my back that I've been meaning to be checked for a while now. So, a couple of weeks ago, I was sitting at my computer doing my daily work and I had the feeling to make an appointment to have them looked at. The though came to my mind and I pushed it back - I was busy. Then something told me to do it NOW. So, I called an made an appt and saw the Dermatologist the next week. He injected the warts on my feet and looked at the freckle on my back, which he wasn't really concerned with, but I asked him to take it off anyway - since I've had skin cancers taken off before. He obliged and told me they would call me with the results of the biopsy in about a week.
A week later I got the call and they asked me to come in so they could take the rest of the freckle off - the cells were changing. I didn't think anything of it, since I've had skin cancers before. When I got to the office the Dr told me that out of 100 skin cancers removed 80% are bening - 1.5% are malignant melanoma and the other 18.5% are pre-melanoma and are rated mild, moderate and severe - mine was severe. I was shocked, scared, relieved and most of all GRATEFUL that I had listened to the spirit and had it taken care of before it became a mess.
