Re: Finally 2021

Echoing Becky and Donna. You will always have support with this group. I also had a melanoma removed from my upper chest; actually right in the middle of my collarbone over 5 years ago. I blame serious sun exposure during my stupid years but who knows?

Kind of surprised re: comment about Vagifem and breast cancer since your signature indicated ER-.
