Introduction

The "Hotel Melanoma" moniker is a metaphor for living with my particular brand of cancer. Except for those lucky few of us deemed "cured", all we cancer survivors are guests of one of the many, many branded hotels in the "Hotel Carcinoma" chain. We can check out any time we like, but we can never leave. Meanwhile, let's be livin' it up; and please support cancer education, prevention, and treatment research.

Celebration


Rev. Carol Taylor, melanoma survivor and host of the Melanoma Prayer Center on Facebook, is celebrating a milestone in her journey this Saturday, July 9. She’s chosen Kool And The Gang’s “Celebration” as her theme song for the event, and I just couldn’t stop myself from offering some new lyrics to a great party song…
