2022 is the first photo that I sent my dermatologist.
00:03
I'd send photos in, they'd go, it doesn't look that bad.
00:05
I went to this doctor at the end of 2020.
00:08
Who knew me?
00:08
Yeah, mid-2024.
00:09
And he was like, no, that's definitely not melanoma.
00:12
And that's the answer that you want.
00:13
You want a diagnosis of you're fine, go home.
00:16
So I went home.
00:17
And then I just thought, it's not right.
00:19
It kept changing.
00:20
It was really raised and really red,
00:22
but it still didn't look like what melanoma looks like online.
00:24
I was like, something is up with this mole.
00:26
It was just like raised and really red.
00:28
And even the doctor at that appointment was like, this isn't melanoma.
00:32
It's fine.
00:32
But I was paying him a grand, so he took it off for me.
00:35
He was like, I'm happy to take it.
00:38
Got removed.
00:39
It's been healing really well.
00:40
He calls me today.
00:42
It's melanoma.
00:45
Luckily, it was caught early.
00:46
I don't think it has spread.
00:47
But if you think that you have something on your body that's not right,
00:53
especially over 40, especially when you have all these dependents.
00:56
I don't even have life insurance.
00:58
In the process of applying for life insurance,
01:01
just get it checked and get a second opinion.
01:04
Don't just be happy with like, no, it's not the thing you think it is.
01:07
Bye.
01:08
Because honestly, if I had taken that, I could be dead in a few years.
01:11
That's how serious melanoma is.
01:14
Please, please, please go make the appointment.
01:17
I know you're busy.
01:18
I know you're a mom.
01:19
I know you have to work.
01:20
Make the appointment.
