Opus 2025-273: A Time to Cut

As I write I am sitting in a chair at the skin surgeon.  I just had some skin cancer removed and I got to watch.  You might be one of those who pass out at the sight of blood but I have always found surgery interesting.  In high school a class had a chance to watch some open-heart surgery.  I enjoyed every slice of the blade.

I might as well enjoy it.  I seem to have a tendency toward skin cancer.  This is number 6 and I assume there will be more.

Now we wait.  The method this doctor uses is called Mohs and she explained that means I wait while they analyze the tissue removed to see if they got it all.  If the chair were more comfortable I would take a nap but such is not to be.
