Two years ago I was diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma on my right fore arm and basal cell on the left. They took out quite a chunk of skin off each arm, then sutured them both back together--and if you know me, you know how skinny my arms are. They said come back in 10 days to get those sutures out, but I told them Id be in the UP hunting birds and would take them out myself. The dermatologist, who is an avid bear hunter, had doubts , but I told him I'd been removing sutures from eyes for years, his PA who used to work in the ER laughed and said, yeah, he can do that. Taking those sutures from the right arm with my left hand was a little awkward.
