Hello everybody. Welcome to another episode of the crime and coffee couple. My name's

Allison. And my name's Mike. Hi, Mike. Hey, Al. How you been, Beth? I've been okay. Yeah,

besides the horrible stitches in your ear. Yeah, it's been quite a week. Yeah. Um, as a lot of you folks remember,

Alison had a little skin cancer scare there last week.

Nothing small about cancer.

That word sucks.

But yeah, it seems like the doctor said they got it all, which is good.

So now you're on the recovery.

Literally, like, took a chunk.

Like, they took a lot of the skin off.

They did.

So I had to go on Tuesday to have what's called a Mo's procedure where they remove layer by layer

of skin until you have clear margins with no more cancer remaining.

And they have no idea how much they're going to have to take.

It all depends on they, like, do this cryo thing and freeze the tissue and then look at it.

And with the ear, there's really not much skin to work with as it is.

And it's supposed to be a skin sparing procedure.

But the first round, I saw how much she removed and I was utterly shocked.

Because you're a weirdo and she was like, do you want to see it?

And you're like, yeah. So it was very scary. We were at the dermatologist for like five hours on Tuesday. It was more

emotional at first than I thought it was going to be because I was very nervous and scared and I

didn't know what to expect. Yeah, me too. And I could see how much she took. And I was like, oh, man, this closure the following day is going to be really rough.
