Thank you all of my fellow hubbers who gave me such lovely comments and send their sincere thoughts and prayers.
It seems that they have paid off, as I am the bearer of better news than I thought I was going to have to give you.
My Specialist has informed me that I definitely did the right thing by getting my mole checked. I was told that if I had left this for at least another six months it had the potential to turn into a MELANOMA, sorry about shouting, but this is important. I was lucky this time, but if I had not got it checked it would have been a different story.
I am telling you all this as a warning that if you have a mole that changes in colour, i.e. gets darker, of starts to get itchy or bleed. Even if you are not sure, please have it checked. I did not think it was anything at first to worry about, but it nearly cost me my life, please dont procrastinate.
If you are not sure, please have it checked.
I also have to look out for more now because apparently, the type of lesion I had is known to turn up again, so I will watching very carefully.
Thanks again to everyone, from Beautybabe.

Logged into my Amazon Associates this morning and it's suddenly showing $0 earned this month. Suddenly all the money I've made this month has vanished (it was all there yesterday). It still shows the number of ordered items and the appropriate referral rate I've achieved this month, but...
