Jay Allen Melanoma Skin Cancer Survivor - RPA Where Are They Now? Oct 2009 - Part 2

Watch the journey of a young Australian who suffered melanoma from the use of solariums.

Young Melanoma Survivor Jay Allen is making people aware of the dangers of sunbeds. Jay feels they changed his life, so now he wants to try and save as many lives as he can through his campaign.

If your under 35 and use a solarium twice, it increases your chances of developing skin cancer and in particular melanoma by 75%.

The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has moved Ultra-Violet emitting tanning beds to it's highest cancer risk category and labeled them as carcinogenic to humans.

By regulating sunbeds, they remain lethal and will cause deaths. These facts alone should be enough to have sunbeds banned. A tan is simply not worth dying for.

Save our future generations! Please sign the petition NOW to see these deadly sunbeds and solariums BANNED in Australia and around the world.

Had a 2.5mm deep x 12mm on back.

2 Excisions, and the bloody scintigram (it hurts a lot) at RPA

The surgeons could't find the lymph-nodes anyway - all that pain for nought!. Made a bit of a mess under the arm but at least there is no chance of lymphedema.

When you first go to Gloucester House it's scary scary scary although the people are wonderful.

Doc Robin Saw reckons I'm 80% @ five years.

Then I get a Neuro-Endocrine Tumour in the pancreas. Got that burned out at RPA.

Home away from home.

1) It´s weird, there is no video in the world where there isn´t one who "dislikes it".

2) Inspirational - yes, I have been diagnosed first with Medullary Thyroid cancer, and after another hospital checked the biopsy, they think it is Melanoma now, while not 100% sure. Emotions all pop up as in this video, with the uncertainty of the future. First surgery next weeks tuesday hope it goes as well as in this video.
