Wisdom Wart

Just back from the dermatologist with some good news. 

Honey had a mole on her cheek that was causing her to worry.  Since it was asymmetrical and the area had recently begun to itch – both warning signs of melanoma – there was real cause for concern.

The doctor took one look at it and said that it was nothing to worry about - what she called a “wisdom wart” – the sort of mole we all get as we get wiser and older.  She took it off and sent it for biopsy, but she was so confident of her diagnosis that we can’t help but breathe a big sigh of relief.
