Nothing Free in Oklahoma
by
So, I’m looking online for free skin cancer screenings and ‘lo and behold, nothing in Tulsa or anywhere else in the entire state of Oklahoma. This, despite the fact that the summer sun in Oklahoma can be deadly (UV index today, 7/7/07, is 10 = very high, meaning 15 minutes of exposure and your skin is taking damage).
The American Academy of Dermatologists has approximately 60 Doctors registered in Oklahoma and not one of them is listed as offering free skin cancer screenings. So much for christian charity here in the buckle of the bible belt.
According to the National Weather Service:
Tulsa, Oklahoma, skin cancer, dermatologist, free, UV

Hi Candy! Thought I’d just stop in and say hi, one Oklahoman to another.
And you’re right… there’s really not much free ’round here. :/

Hi Kathy. Thanks for the welcome. I was a little nervous, it being my first time. It took me awhile to get the hang of the software, but I think I’m getting it now. Where in Ok are you?

We started at the same time, I think! I’m in Oklahoma City. In fact, I just drove through Tulsa for the first time last weekend. (Your skyline is prettier than ours.)
