I am seeing my Dermatologist this week to get stitches out of two other places that where biopsied. She didn't say it was melanoma but "areas of concern" that could be a slow growing melanoma both on my cheeks larger than a quarter. I thought they were darker sun spots!?!?

Yes Friday is surgery for removal of the melanoma and reconstruction.

Biopsy was done Jan 4th. Surgery to remove half of his lip (as the cancer is inside his lip) and do reconstruction is Friday.
