A Subtle Beginning
When 34-year-old Sarah Mitchell from Oregon first noticed a tiny mole on her shoulder, she didn’t give it a second thought.
It looked like all the others she had — round, light brown, flat. She’d had moles since her teenage years and had never experienced any issues. But this one, small and seemingly harmless, would soon become a silent alarm for something far more dangerous.
Life in Motion
Sarah was a busy woman — a mother of two and a marketing manager at a fast-paced company. Her days were filled with meetings, school runs, and household chores. There was no time for small details. Even when the mole began to look slightly different, she brushed it off. “It’s probably just sun exposure,” she told herself, trying not to worry.
The First Signs
Months went by, and the mole slowly began to change. It became more raised, its edges uneven, and occasionally, it would itch. Still, there was no pain or bleeding, so she continued to ignore it. In her mind, it was nothing — just another part of getting older, another thing to put off for later.
