Is it bad if new moles appear? I think I'm dying! I have three new moles!
What?! Why would you think that you were dying because of a new mole?
Because Katy saw it and said new development of moles means I have cancer and am dying.
Look at it, how long do you think I have?
Do you believe everything your sister says?
Well, she is older and knows a lot about life mom. She is 25 you know.
Ah, I forgot that being half my age means you know everything. Anyways, no, you are
not dying.
How can you be sure?
Because I know these things. New moles don't always mean something bad and most people
continue to develop moles well into their middle age.
Ewww! So I'm going to be covered in these?
At this rate, you're sure to look like a leopard soon.
Mom, I'm being serious! This is a huge deal!
Look, moles are just a thing. They are normal.
Yeah, but they are so ugly.
Well, they can get uglier and that's what you want to watch for. Not so much the development
of a new one, but the changes in an older one.
Oh so this is like another responsibility? Great.
You could look at it that way but really honey, you will notice something is not right if
it happens.
Yeah, but now I have to keep checking, meaning I have to look at these ugly things.
Or you could start going to a dermatologist and they can look at them periodically for
you.
That sounds like a good idea. I have these all over.
Well, now someone else can look and see them better.
Yeah, just one problem.
What's that?
Do you know any cute dermatologists? I don't want someone inspecting me that closely without
giving me a little something to look back at.
Ugh, go call your all-knowing sister.
Oh yeah! She'd totally know!
