Her habit will scare you! When she was younger, mom Claire Brooks (38) four times a week she applied oil and gel to her hair and tanned in a solarium to look like a celebrity. Although she got rid of it 10 years ago, years later a terrifying mark appeared on her leg, informs
Claire said doctors sent her home twice in 2022 despite fears that suspicious looking mark is getting bigger. By September of that year, when the mark had grown to the size of a coin, Claire insisted on its removal. That’s when she was diagnosed with melanoma.
So Claire underwent surgery to remove the growth and got rid of the cancer. Two years later, however, she realized that her cancer returned when she felt a lump in her stomach. After two operations, the cancer was removed, but the woman she must undergo preventive immunotherapy during the next year so that it does not return.
In a Facebook post, Claire said her desire to get a tan was not worth the suffering she had faced over the past two years. “It was just a matter of confidence. At that time, everyone wanted to be tanned, all the celebrities were tanned, and I followed this trend. At that age, I thought I was invincible. There were no reports of risks at the time, quite the opposite,” admits the woman.
Claire said there were many times she thought she wouldn’t live another five years because there was a high risk the cancer could return. “I would be stupid if I wasn’t interested in the future. I went through all the emotions thinking about recordings for my daughter’s 18th birthday in case I’m not there,” he describes his fear to Claire.
He now urges people to pay more attention to checking the signs. “If you have signs, get them checked! If you leave it too long, you can go through hell.” Claire points out.
