» Graphic skin cancer to warn of tanning dangerous.
Cloud
starts off the page saying, "This Is Skin Cancer. This is the result of
using tanning beds when I was younger. This is the result of having
numerous sunburns as a child and teen, and not being religious about
applying sunscreen, and staying out in the sun far too long as a teen and into my 20's and even early 30's. "Cloud goes into detail about her grueling treatment. She
explains, "Four weeks post-surgery, I still can not open my mouth all
the way. I still can not eat extremely chewy or crunchy foods. The area
above my mouth is still numb, which causes a very weird sensation when I'm
trying to drink from a cup. I have to try to aim for the right side of
my mouth when drinking so I do not dribble liquid while trying to drink.
My doctor said the numbness could take several months to go away. " She also tallies the total cost of her treatment: almost $ 27,000.Next
time you think about hitting the tanning bed or want to spend some
extra time in the sun to give your skin that "healthy glow," pop over to
