Do you think that I shouldn't mention my mom's cancer? She's just such a big part of my life I can't imagine meeting people and not talking about her. I mean, I don't get weepy or anything when I mention the cancer, she's in remission now and looking great!
I'd stay out of the sun because I'm concerned about sunburns and skin damage, regardless of how it makes me look. My personal thing is to avoid tanning (real or fake) because I believe I look amazing the way I already am, even if there wasn't a health risk involved I wouldn't do it. I don't color my hair or wear colored contacts either because it just doesn't jive with my personality or how I want to present myself to the world.

I don't often mention the cancer that took my relatives as sometimes the emotions take over and I can't control it. I have only mentioned it in relation to why I wasn't in school or why I changed schools, and then move on with the conversation.
