The surgeon has removed the closest Sentinel Lymph Node to the original area, sent that to be biopsied and possibly removed some skin around the first area too. Now you wait for a couple days to a week after surgery to get the results. Continue reading The results from the Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy

The summer movie season is in full swing and somewhere in the middle of it is the horror movie, The Conjuring. The Conjuring comes to movie theaters on July 19. We’ve seen it per their terms and conditions can’t review the movie until that day. However, the film scored a massive 93% on Rotten Tomatoes and would we give away tickets to something that we willingly knew wasn’t entertaining? Continue reading Win 4 tickets to The Conjuring at a movie theater near you
When you wake up from your Sentinel Lymph Node surgery you’re groggy and won’t remember much. Groggy is putting it mildly as I couldn’t remember how I got dressed to leave the hospital. It was an 8 hour bar bender that left me hungry and curious, complete with a stop at Arby’s on the way home.
This is my story about recovery from melanoma surgery. They biopsied one Sentinel Lymph Node, accessing it through a cut into my left under arm, and they made an incision in my back. Your recovery will be different, but this may provide a guide for what to expect, minus the cat in the bed and TV shows. Continue reading Recovery from a Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy: Melanoma surgery
I love to read. I’ve always loved to read and it was comic books that introduced me into the fact that reading is fun. That totally sounds like a PSA, but it’s true. I still read comic books, but, as a child I started reading easy reader comics like Spidey, and, to a lesser extent, Richie Rich. Thus, as a dad, I’m on the hunt for easy reader books that children will love. If your child is into fantasy adventure they will love The Kitchen Witch and here is why.

Continue reading The trailer premier for Delivery Man. 533 children & 1 dad
Recap: My wife saw a mole on my back and said (in a loving manner) “get that thing checked out”. The dermatologist biopsied it, came back cancerous and here we are for Melanoma surgery. Melanoma is a complex thing- lots of blogs go into detail about what stage is this or what astrological sign that is. This is my experience with melanoma. You’re not really consulting a blog that bills itself as ‘poop culture’ for valid medical advice about your specific case, are you? Continue reading What to expect from your Melanoma surgery
In my previous life I worked at a large humane society where I did their social media and fundraising for five years. During that time I heard hundreds of animal tales, learned about healthy dog treats and basic pet safety. The 4th of July is great fun for humans, but can be a life altering day for dogs. For us we’re going to treat our guys to some chicken jerky for dogs, BBQ at home and be thankful for all that we have. Continue reading Planning for a dog’s 4th of July and their nutrition #cbias #ad
