CAN YOU RELATE?

An estimated 5.4 million cases of nonmelanoma skin cancer, such as basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell skin cancer, are diagnosed in the United States every year. Even though most of these skin cancers can be cured if caught early, receiving a cancer diagnosis can be scary.

If you can relate to the millions of people who will be diagnosed with nonmelanoma skin cancer this year, share your experiences from diagnosis to treatment, and beyond through the Skin Cancer CARE (skincancerinfo.org).
