  3. The Many Types of Skin Cancer

    As a sun lover with a fair complexion and a history of blistering sunburns, I've spent much of the last decade waiting for skin cancer. So when I noticed that a fleshy pink nodule on the side of my head seemed to be growing exponentially, I headed to the dermatologist for official confirmation.

  7. Moles' Split Personality

    We've long been told to keep an eye on our moles lest they progress to melanoma, a form of skin cancer that's treatable if caught early, deadly if not. But not all moles are equal -- some are risky; others can be safely left alone. The biological roots of those differences are not really understood. However, scientists are making progress on several fronts.

  10. Second opinions

    A public official's health is legitimate commentary fodder. Dick Cheney's blood clots and heart issues. Bill Clinton's cardiac-burger attacks. Ronald Reagan's basal cell carcinoma and (yuck!) colon polyps. But life-threatening cancer? That's pretty much uncharted territory. No surprise, then, that most cartoonists skipped over Elizabeth Edwards' and White House spokesman Tony Snow's announcements in favor of more comfortable topics &#8212; war, genocide or pet poisoning. A couple of us took the easy way out, second-guessing the second-guessers. Kevin Siers was of two minds, but Walt Handelsman delivered a thoughtful point. Now there's another opinion worth considering.
