Not speaking directly from firsthand experience, but I lost my cousin to melanoma two months ago and my partner lost her mom nine years ago to bile duct cancer. Now my partner has just recently gone in to the doctor to have some of her moles looked at, and one she had removed and biopsied came back with "atypical" results. Having lost several other members of her family to cancer some years ago and just recently witnessing what my cousin went through in the last month of her life, my partner is very scared. Fortunately she was able to get an appointment with a dermatologist in two weeks to have the pathology report reviewed and her other moles looked at. Until then, she has told me she expects to be told the very worst. All we can do is wait, and I will be as supportive and positive as I possibly can be.

I don't really know what else to say but figured this thread would be an appropriate place to post this.
