Julian Lennon says he went into 2020 all optomistic with a smile on his face, after going through a rough five years since his mother passed. Then last week, his world was turned upside down.
Yesterday, the singer explained what happened, “I went to visit My dermatologist, here in LA, when she noticed a little bump on My head, that was actually a Mole, that had been there, along with a Birthmark, for the last 57 years…. But this time, it looked & felt a little different.
“She urged me to have a Biopsy 2 days ago, which I obliged… Only to learn, 24 hrs later, that it was Malignant/Cancerous, and that her recommendation was to get it removed immediately, which is what happened today…. Hopefully We managed to remove all that was cancerous, but the Mole is being sent off again, for a further/deeper analysis, and I’ll have those results next week.”
He did not share his diagnosis with us “for sympathy.” Instead, he wants everyone to go to their doctors twice a year for checkups because “Life is too Short… Don’t make it shorter, by being ignorant about Your Own health.” Amen.
Even though he still has a full head of hair, the sun can still penetrate through. You might think you are safe from the sun, but you never know. It is a really important lesson for all of us to take care of ourselves. It does not have to be just skin cancer, it can be anything. Don’t wait until it is too late.
Hopefully, next week, he will get some good news and find out they got it all.
