was not in fact a mole at all—it was an Alterswarze, otherwise known as a (this is great) senile wart
very common in the elderly, usually start to appear after the age of 40. clearly i am aging before my time. the nurse thought it was a hoot; the dermatolgist reckons i must be wise. heh.

anyway, i’m glad it’s gone. i knew there was something iffy about it—luckily it was good/funny iffy.
