Jason Odom Skin Cancer Post Surgery Situation
Written by Jason on November 5, 2008 – 4:04 pm -Well I had that spot that was no larger than a pea removed from my face and when they tested it they said I had basil cell carcinoma which is a slow growing minor skin cancer mainly caused from exposure to the sun. So I had to go back and this is how I ended up.
6 years ago I had a small patch removed which left no scar and so I have been wearing a hat, sunblock and long sleeved white shirts when out hiking ever since. The doctor said the damage I have showing up now was caused many many years ago maybe as long as 15.
My advice is simple. DON”T BE STUPID AND LAZY LIKE I WAS! Do NOT underestimate what is happening when you get a TAN whether at the beach in Florida or a pool party in Vegas! Who cares what color your skin is when you are having 1.5″ gashes sliced open on your face by a surgeon with chances of infection, intense heavy pain, and thousands of dollars in cost! Kelly’s surfer friend lost his eye from the same kind of skin damage.

Bette Midler fan seeks help
Written by Jason on June 27, 2008 – 6:27 pm -EDITORS NOTE: One of the avid readers of MyRealVegas is asking for help again. Please contact us if you can be of assistance. “My name is Katrin and I live in Germany. I’m a huge Bette Midler fan for 17 years now. In February 2008 I flew all the way to Vegas to see my idol live on stage for the very first time. Imagine how excited I was when Miss Midler came out of the Colosseum right after the show on her way to the press conference. I ran over to her and asked her to take a pic with me, she agreed. So, I stood next to her but my friend - who was supposed to take the photo - forgot to push the camera button and I didn’t get that picture. For the few seconds I stood next to Bette I noticed few flashlights, so there might be a chance that somebody took a picture of Bette and me. I saw that you’ve been there at this particular moment and now I wonder if there’s any chance that you (or somebody you know) took the shot that means the world to me. I’m gonna send you a picture of me and my friends, so you can see what we looked like that night. I’d be so thankful if you could please check out if you can find me & Bette on your photos. Please. Thank you so much and greets from Germany, Katrin
