WONDERFUL news, I've been looking for your post. I am happy about it being skin SCC. I had it on my leg many years ago, and the prognosis was when they cut it out, they check and get all the margins free from any SCC, and then you are home free. Even though it's SCC, it's different than what we had/have on the inside (no connection). Does that make sense? Anyway, so very happy for you and Emmitt.
