    I have a Z shaped scar on my right ring finger from my first surgery when I was 3. I had a bone tumor on it removed that was bending my finger.

    On my left ankle, three walnut sized tumors were removed when I was 12, they were causing pain and causing my ankle to bend.

    On my right knee, a grapefruit sized bone tumor was removed when I was 12 for obvious reasons (deformity, pain,etc.). The biopsy came back as beginning cancer cells.

    On my left knee, a orange size bone tumor was removed for the same reasons as the one from my right knee, I was 15.

    I have a 8 inch scar on the right side of my chest under my breast. I was 23 and had 8 inches of my 44th distal rib removed due to a tumor the size of a golf ball. My right lung also decided to collapse with that surgery because breathing was so difficult. I also have an X on my right side where the chest tube was. This biopsy also came back as beginning malignaancy.

    On my right side, right where thigh meets groin, I have a 3" scar where a small bone tumor was removed from the head of my femur where it fits into the acetabulum. I was 28.

    Seeing a theme here? Scars, I've got them. I could never be a stripper.
