Title: Is a second cancerous mole a bad sign?
Post by: Donnah on 23/03/2011 05:21:33

My friend had a rather large piece of flesh removed from her calf 5 years ago because of cancer cells.  She's just had a mole biopsy show cancerous cells are present.  Are these isolated issues, or is this a progression? 

Her name is Therese, and any positive, healing thoughts you send her way are most welcome.

Hey Donnah,

I wish I could provide some insight into your query but I suspect you know me well enough to know that it's beyond my knowledge base...however, I can of course send you and Therese a big helping of sheepy love and healing warmth !...Hope you get an answer here too.
