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.

We've Only Just Begun

For all of you melavangelists working so hard to inform folks that breast cancer isn't the only beastly disease worthy of attention and funding, a request, sort of, to the tune of “We’ve Only Just Begun” from The Carpenters…



We've only just begun to live
White face and pharmacas
Skin checks for stuff and we're on our way
We've only begun

Before the rising sun we fried
So many moles to choose
We start out blocking
And learn it’s fun
And yes! We've just begun

Sharin' more trial drugs that are new to us
Watchin' the signs along the way
Talkin' it over just the few of us
Workin' together day to day, together

And when the evening comes we smile
So much of life ahead
We'll find a place where there's few who glow
And yes! We've just begun

Sharin' more trial drugs that are new to us
Watchin' the signs along the way
Talkin' it over just the few of us
Workin' together day to day, together, together

And when the evening comes we smile
So much of life ahead
We'll find a place where there’s few who glow
And yes! We've just begun
