But what about candyapple cancer?

Girl #1: So I told my mom, he's the latest member of our cancerous family.
Girl #2: Your cancerous family?
Girl #1: Yeah, like eight people in my family have or have had cancer.
Girl# 2: Oh, eight, that's such an awkward number. What kind of cancer does he have?
Girl #1: Skin cancer.
Girl #2: Oh, that's good! That's the best kind.

She may have a point, though. At least you can see skin cancer.

Skin cancer is more easily removed than many other cancers.

Unless it has spread, to say your lungs, brain, bones etc. Melanoma is the most fun form.

Actually 10:38, the type of cancer you have is named after the area that it first developes in. So if you have skin cancer and it spreads to you liver, its still called skin cancer, even though its not on your skin.

melanoma's the most malignant type of cancer, it's the WORST kind, ugh. And how the hell is 8 an awkward number? How can a number be awkward?!

^ agreed 11:45 - malignant melanoma is one of most deadly forms of cancer because of how it spreads. It actually grows roots into the body, and isn't usually discovered until it is already in stage 3 or 4
