Speaker 1 (00:01):
Today's Daily Highlight from Elvis Duran in the Morning Show and.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
What's on your mind today, Danielle other than everything you've
already told us.
Speaker 3 (00:09):
Well, we haven't talked about my skin cancer yet. Let's
do it so we can talk about that if you fun.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
So you went and you had a part of your
head removed.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (00:20):
So it started out a year ago and there was
a little dot on my face. And the reason I
got to check was because of Chloe Kardashian because she
had a dot on her face and it turned out that.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
She wound up with melanoma.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
So I went in and the dermatologist told me, no,
it's nothing, we don't worry about that. I said, okay,
but it still sat with me. So I went back
and I asked again and she still said it's nothing.
So fast forward a year later, it's still on my
face and my son went to a different dermatologist, so
I had her check and she said, yeah, I don't
like the way that looks. Wow, So I said okay,
(00:52):
So she sent it away and it turned out to
be basil cell carcinoma, so not melanoma, thank goodness. But
the other one, which is the one that doesn't usually spread,
but you still have to get a ticket off and
it's on the face, so you want to go to
somebody that will take it off, you know, the right way.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
So our friend doctor.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
Blaine from Doctor Blaine Plastic Surgery, she's amazing. She went in,
she got the rest of the cancer out, she stitched
me up. She's actually coming in tomorrow to take the
stitches out live on the air. So yeah, that's ratings.
But out of all of this, I actually want to
post something on Instagram. There's some graphic pictures. We decided
not to post the video because that was a little
(01:31):
too much of me getting everything done, because it's it's
just so important to get yourself checked. It's you know,
we always talk about skin cancer and it really is
something that you have to be on top of and
using sunscreen and taking care of yourself, but also advocacy
for yourself if you don't think something is right and
you know it. And that was just bothering me, and
(01:53):
I just kept pushing and pushing. You have to find
someone that's gonna listen to, you know.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
And you always think, hey, doctors are very smart, I
mean they're very learned. I mean they've been to school,
and so you go, well, okay, if they're not worried
about to spot on my neck, then it's probably fine.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
That's what I thought.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Well, see, you do have to be an advocate for yourself.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
Exactly, and I thank you Chloe Kardashian. I know what
some people say about the Kardashians, but Chloe is the
reason why I kept getting a checked just did not.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
I was like, Nope, something's not right.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
There you go. So whether it's a dot on your
face or a feeling you have and you're tummy or whatever. Yeah,
if you think something's kind of fishy, go get that
checked out and.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Always get your second opinions. Of course, that's what happened.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
And what would it have taken for her to just
like shave that off and biopsy it anyway, just to
put my mind, have.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
You reached back out and been like, well, well, so
I did.
Speaker 3 (02:43):
And they gave me a phone number to call to
basically complain to like an office manager because she's they said,
this shouldn't have happened.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
So that's what they told me to do.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
Interesting, So, yeah, you have to you have to be
your chief caretaker, best advocate, and because of you Danielle
that I'm going to get a spot on my face.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
Thank you, and see you two of us have something.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
Let's go together.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
Let's make it a field trip.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
You know, it's crazy. This was actually a dermatologist. It
was just a local one in the area. But a
lot of my friends had used them and they said, oh,
you should go to them, and so that's why I went.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
But obviously you see and I'm going to go out
on a limb here. But my assumption through my experience
is a lot of dermatologists are more cosmetic. I think
she is, and then some others are more Okay, let's
see what that role is. So I don't know anyway.
So I'm glad you assured.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
That you have seen my little stitches. I love them.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
I think it looks so good.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
I think that Deanna said, I look like Sally from
Jack and Sally from Nightmare Before Christmas.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
