I had a small skin cancer 10 years ago - they said I had a one in 20 chance of
death in 5 years - now it came back - probably because of diet and stress
use this as a wake-up call - look after yourself
fantastic news - go have a party!
Love and healing
Ian
PS I am from England UK

Hi Doralea,
Thanks for responding, I hope your bioposies turn out with good news.
I am just outside of San Antonio, small town called Castroville.
