When it rains it pours they say and so it is with our intrepid writer. Before getting run over by Mr. Wong the Ford driver -- who it turns out is the dude who hit me on 2 October 2010. I went to the GP to have her check out a spot on my face. Hmmm, better get that looked out by a dermatologist.
Two weeks later I am at the Royal Free awaiting the verdict. Yes, indeed, Its a Basel Cell Carcinoma (aka BCC or delightfully here in jolly olde England a rodent ulcer). Bad news, good news. Bad news - that spot on my face is actually a cancer but good news - its a milder form of skin cancer. However its nothing to sneeze at and should be taken very seriously. So I was scheduled for a biopsy and after several delays, today is the day.
I thought it would be a small incision - but it turned out to be a pretty big hole right on my cheek; several layers of stitches and the top layer looked pretty bad. I am depressed but what the heck compared to the massive and still healing scar on my leg from the crash and the otehr scar on my face also from teh crash - this is really not that bad.
Gotta say, its been tough this last couple of weeks. In seven days the stitches come out and we will see.
