Cool, skin cancer is bad here in australia. Something about our UV levels or something. I live in a town with the second highest rate of melanomas in australia, behind darwin.

yer australia represents one of the highest incidence of skin cancer. isn't there a thin layer of o-zone over our country? making us more succeptable to UV? although i thought my city (gold coast) would rate high in the amount of skin-cancer per city.

Actually I'm pretty excited about their finds. My aunt died of lupus and my cousins and I have to be very careful about the sun.

i have some family history of skin cancer, and due to moles on parts of my back it also increases my risk a lot. but i keep track of them, and next time im at the doctors ill get him to double check them again (got him to check about 15months ago, should do it more tho).

and this cream looks good, although i think it will b a while before it is approved. as in, a very long time.

Yep...they are always checking my skin and moles because of all the time I spend outside. And yep...a long time it will be. That's okay. I plan on being around a while longer.
