dreamer3, it's pretty vain to get the cancer where you don't have to be concerned about scars. The procedure is easy. It can be a long process getting to the margins as they test the skin for cancer after each removal. I'd say download an engaging video to stream. And in your case you might want a pillow with a gap for the cancered area so you can sit without putting pressure on it. And something good and consoling to eat and drink in case it takes all day. I'd send my ride away--on call, but you might have someone distracting and fun.
