Not to be a downer, but my good neighbor, a vet, who was a redhead had a small one on his back removed one June. By the second June afterward, he was dead. I sat with his wife as he died with tumor growing everywhere. On the other hand my brother’s wife has two sisters who had them excised years ago and seem to be doing ok.
I feel (I have no data) that individual’s immune systems factors in on how our bodies deal with cancer cells. Some seem to succumb fast and early while others who toiled under the sun for decades, and who routinely burned, die in their beds in their 90’s. And that would all would seem to have a genetic basis.
Of course, that may hold for all cancers.
Get rid of any questionable skin lesions posthaste. Or quicker.
