"What's that on your nose?"


I was visiting Emily and Carvel with my dad today.
While we were looking at their garden, Carvel points at my nose with a stalk of wheat. "Hey, Em, is that what I had on my nose? The thing my dermatologist buddy burned off?"
Emily's response: "I don't know, it doesn't look the same."
"If that's what I had, those things can kill you."

And the conversation returns to more pleasant things.
Ack!

I'm telling you, no commanding you: go get those things checked out!
Now!
I will not lose you to skin cancer. Or anything else, for that matter.

I do belive that Grandma Edge had a false nose tip due to the sun exposure...who knows??? Carvel is so great at pointing things out! He's a thinker!

Are you ok Nedgie?

Have you gotten it checked? Get it checked! You beach bum! For those of us who never see the sun, skin cancer isn't a foremost concern. But for you, Nedgie, I am worried. You and your sun-kissed tanness. So take my advice, and cart your little nose off to a doctor, just so I can have some peace of mind, eh?

It's fine!
Carvel had a reddish sore on his nose. My nose has my trademark freckle I've had since I was about five.
I do visit my dermie before school. For your sake, I will ask him about everything from the freckle on my nose to my odd-textured freckles on my arm...(j/k)
