I have a lot of moles. I have always had a lot of them. Some of these moles were fine, no problem; some I actually liked, because they were kind of weird; and a few I just hated. When I was young, I had 4 on my face. Two were pretty dark and one kind of pale, it was the last one I really hated. The one I hated was not too dark, but not pale, and it sat right on the left side of my chin, just before the chin goes under to the neck. The really pale one was on the right side, kind of where the cheek and the chin sort of meet. It is raised, but it has only the palest of flesh tone. One of the dark ones got a... thing happen about 23 years ago and lost its color. The other dark one got a pimple under it. I am a terrible pimple popper, but I did my best to not pop it. It got the whole white head thing and popped itself. I'm going to tell you, it had blood running down the cheek too. This one was on the left side. When the scab fell off, there was no mole anymore. These 4 moles made one of those four sided things with uneven sides. I got the one I hated on my chin removed. That was really the one I hated the most. Most of my moles were where clothes didn't cover them up. I have one on the palm of my left hand. It isn't as obvious as it was when I was younger. I also have one right between my left big and next toe, maybe a bit more to the smaller toe. I have had moles removed. 5 on my back, 2 on my front collar bone area, 2 apparently scary ones on my right arm (they were fine), and the one on my face - I'm not going to say the one that was pimple removed. They have all been fine, so I'm going to say I'm good with the ones I have left. So, do you have moles (those dark, often raised things)? Have you had any removed? Were they fine, pre-cancerous or cancerous? Quick funny story, my first cat I think hunted fleas and she would sometimes go after one of the moles. That wasn't the most fun I ever had, but she never bit hard enough to draw blood.

My dad had some removed that were cancerous, and some that were precancerous. People do not pay enough attention to their moles, and how they change. Of course, back in my dad’s day, sunscreen was hardly ever even suggested.

The only people who were doing anything were the life guards at the pools and they had that white stuff on their noses. Connie had a stage 3 melanoma removed. After the first bit of the mole came back as cancer, she had to go to a melanoma surgeon to make sure it had been caught. All of mine were fine. Even the one that had become 3 colors, brown, white-ish and then pink. It had a very black 'satellite' but I told them "no, the 3 colors are new but the satellite had always been very black. I can see the ones on my arms and I do often check on them, but so far none of them had changed, except for the 3 colored one. But I have had a lot of them removed, and I still have a lot of them.
