You are very welcome. The sad part about this is that it does not show for years...He was blond and shirtless many of his years and in sports..It did not show until he was 23...Now they watch our other son as anything suspect is being taken off him too. The moles are hereditary and they are the culprits...Now they say that the sun screen does not help but I have a hard time believing this...Yet, I do know that the rays of the Sun are so much stronger than they were when I was young...I saw the first one that they took off and it was on his back..Irregular in shape and many colors..Looked like it was bubbling...It had already started to grow down where the danger level is as it was going into his blood stream...They start by growing out and that is how a round mole loses it's shape and become irregular and the thing to watch out for...
Light skinned people and blonds are the target but anyone can get it...Take care and I wish you and your family well...Caroline
