You should see my terrible, wide, knee scar from surgery when I was 15. When they replaced it in 08, they had to go over the same scar because they were afraid the skin between two scars would die.

Yikes!!! I haven’t heard that but when my breast cancer came back in my chest wall, the surgeon opened up the mastectomy scar even though it wasn’t where the new tumor was because she didn’t have the heart to add more scars. She extended the old incision and stretched to reach the new tumor. It was kind of her, but I ended up with a positive margin so maybe it wasn’t the best choice. Hmmm. Hindsight is always 20/20, huh?
