The Harts for Hope One Mile Walk Event this morning was a huge success! It brought a lot of amazing people together to remember those we’ve lost, support those who are still battling, celebrate those who have survived, and bring awareness of women’s cancers to those in our community!

Today marks more than just the start of the week—it marks a call to action.

On this important day, during Melanoma Awareness Month, UNC Health Lenoir Cancer Center honor the lives impacted by this deadly disease, celebrate the progress made, and recommit to the critical mission ahead: ending melanoma for good.

Melanoma is serious—but it also can be preventable and treatable when caught early. That’s why today, we urge you to:
- Check your skin
- Know the warning signs
- Support melanoma research
- Share this message

May is Melanoma and Skin Cancer Awareness Month. As you head out to the BBQ festival this weekend, make sure you practice sun safety like wearing a hat and sunscreen. It’s also important to get your skin regularly checked and to seek medical attention for any new or changing moles.

Today, April 16, is National Healthcare Decisions Day. Only about 30% of all Americans have advance directives, and there is no time like today to begin thinking about the importance of these directives.

Do you know who would make your health care decisions for you in the event you aren’t able to make these decisions for yourself, and does this person know what matters to you regarding your health care? Advance Health Care Directives are the best way to choose someone to speak for you if you are unable, outline the care you would want or not want, and give your loved ones peace of mind during difficult times. You do not want to wait until you are sick to let your loved ones know what care you would want.
