May is Skin Cancer Awareness Month

May is Skin Cancer Awareness Month! Olay has teamed up with Dermatologists all over the country to offer free skin cancer screenings!
This is a very important issue in my family. My mom is fighting Melanoma on her face. She was just cleared by her doctor. She only has to wait a year for her next appointment. She had to have a big piece of Melanoma cancer on her face cut away. She nearly lost her right eye from it. She now has a big scar on her face and is missing part of her eyebrow. But she is alive! Thank you Jesus!
To have a free screening (even if you don't think you're at risk!) please Visit The Olay Website By Clicking Here to find the Dermatologist who is participating near you.
