  6. Natalie’s Story “I tanned because I felt like it made me look prettier and skinnier, my grandmother begged me not to tan because she was scared I’d get skin cancer. I was like ‘no, it’s not going to happen to me…” Natalie then went on to find out that she had a mole on her back that ended up being melanoma, which put her into a three hour surgery. She went on to say that she is checked monthly for her moles and now feels like melanoma took some of her youth. “I was a carefree college student and basically thought I was invincible. In fact, I joked about it once, saying that I might get skin cancer someday, but as long as I was pretty and tan for the moment, it was okay. How stupid and naive of me to say or even think such a thing. My scars now make me look like some Frankenstein. Tanning isn’t worth it.”
