Cancer Removed

Spent the majority of the day at the hospital for mother's skin cancer removal. They had to cut a good amount of skin out of her nose, near the crease where it meets her cheek, to remove this latest cancer (I think this is the 3 or 4th time now, I can no longer keep track). It reaches from the crease to the nostril and is down to the cartilige. Luckily this one was caught early enough to have not gone too deep, however, it will leave a serious scar.

Scheduled to return tomorrow for the plastic surgery repair. There are some major concerns. She bleeds very badly every time and she is allergic to all of the normal topical cremes that would be normally used to treat these wounds... in fact the stuff end up killing the skin. Hopefully will get a prescription medication that can be used instead.
