365 Days of Memories Take FOUR -- Day 119

And then... sometimes even the simplest prayers go unanswered.
 
But maybe it's not a bad thing. 
I don't know.
 
I've got another dermatologist appointment under my belt which means I've lived another 6 months cancer free and it also means simply that I've been alive another 6 months.  6 months I might not have had if I hadn't found the melanoma when I did. 
 
So yeah, I had to have another biopsy today, and yeah it sucks. And yeah I'm back to bandages and vaseline and a nice sized hole in my back for the next few weeks.
 
BUT,
 
The good news is the doctor doesn't think it's melanoma this time.  And she did the first time apparently right away (though she told me she didn't think it was anything that time too...). 
 
So now a week or so to wait for any news... which is not the news I was hoping for, but it could be worse.

Could always be worse.

My thoughts and prayers are with you. Like you said, luckily she doesn't think it's Melanoma this time. I know the waiting is the hardest part though. Your blogging family is here for you!!
