We spend a lot of time outdoors. We wear baseball caps, bandanas, and,
occasionally, a broad brim hat. Well, I'm paying for it.
Right now, I'm on something called Efudex. Been smearing this cream on
for 5 days and I look like a zombie outta the night of the living dead.
My face is covered with red blotches that will turn into sores. It
feels like its been hit by a cheese grater. Face is swollen like a
rotting corpse. I'll be on pain killers soon. I've got at least 2 and
1/2 more weeks on the stuff, could be as much as 4 and 1/2. Hopefully,
it will get all of the cancerous and pre-cancerous cells. Hopefully.
Wear a broad brimmed hat, SPF 300 cream (multi spectral), sun gloves,
long sleeved shirts. Get checked by your dermatologist annually. Be
mindful when you go outside before your only view of outside is through
a hospital window.

Cripes Frank, I learn more about illness and how the body heals hanging
around with you than anyone I know! Good luck. Been meaning to drop you
aline anyway.
