Hi Joe!
Welcome! I am sorry to hear about the health issues you are having.
It was suggested I reach out to you about my journey.
My melanoma is not as large as the one you have.
During a pedicure, I found a teeny, tiny dot on my toe.
It was not discolored, raised or oddly shaped.
However, when I showed the doctor, she said that someone my age (60s), does not get new moles on my feet, so, so it was removed.
The surgeon went deep and wide to make sure he got everything.
He gave me a couple of stitches to close the wound.
My brother, on the other hand, had his melanoma on his back.
His surgeon, too, decided to stitch the wound which was quite long and deep..
Now this was many years ago so methods might have changed.
Wishing you the best of luck!
Ronnie (GRANDMAr)
