Hello everybody and thank you again for your helpful advice in the past couple weeks since I’ve been diagnosed with my melanoma. I just found out today that when I have my WLE and sentinel lymph node biopsy next week that I will then have to wait six weeks to get the results. I am trying to avoid approximating a cat with my claws stuck in the ceiling for a month and a half! Can any of you please share helpful mantras that you have used? One that I have been thinking is “God has got me.” No worries if you’re not religious; any mantras are helpful. God bless you all.

Hi everybody, I am a 49 year-old married mother of three daughters, and I just got diagnosed with stage one melanoma last week. I’m seeing an oncologist tomorrow. I’m very overwhelmed, and I don’t know what to ask. Could you please tell me some helpful questions for my appointment tomorrow? I’d really appreciate it. The diagnosis has overshadowed my whole week, including Mother’s Day yesterday. It’s just really a lot to deal with, and any advice is appreciated. Thank you so much.
