I had my first of two MOHs surgeries yesterday. This one was for my forehead and it now feels like someone has been driving nails into my head! I have 12 stitches in my head and it feels so tight that the skin is going to rip open. Part of that is due to the swelling and I'm sure that once it goes down I will have some relief.

GF was a huge help and support though. Took me to and from the surgery and stayed with me most of the day yesterday. Is coming back over today as well. She is a really lovely lady and I am really lucky to have found her.

Still no word on the insurance decision but I didn't want to delay this first surgery and the Doctor said the cancer was much more agressive than what she had anticipated. It took her three episodes before she got it all. Word to the wise - going outside then sunscreen up!
