Melanoma Awareness Month is a national call to action to raise awareness about melanoma in May, but that should not stop the continual discussion of melanoma. It should be ongoing. Encourage your friends to get their skin checked, wear sunscreen, sign the No Tanning Promise, educate a friend, and stay in tune to your skin.
