@grammato3 @lenoret Reflecting back, I have had several MOHS surgeries, on my face and arms. The most memorable one is near my collarbone, producing a lightning-looking scar. At this point in my life, the stitches and scars are reminders of my battles, my victories. Definitely conversation starters, at times! A roadmap of my life, as it were.

@gingerw: That's a good way to look at them! When I had my Mayo derm visit this past Monday, I referred to my age spots and the good doctor quickly corrected me by calling them WISDOM spots. Much preferred terminology!
