A woman who says skin cancer treatment has left her looking like Freddy Krueger is urging others to respect the sun. Melissa Lewis, 48, has been living with skin cancer for more than a decade. She has annual treatment which gives her skin a pockmarked look, which she has compared to that of Krueger, a fictional killer. Melissa, from Sydney, Australia, hopes the yearly procedure will keep her cancer at bay. But she wants to speak out to warn others of the harm sun exposure can do, before it’s too late. The mum-of-four, a former nurse, said: “When they said I have Bowen’s disease I thought that was it. “When I looked it up I was like, ‘Oh my god, I am never going to be free’. It is something I have to keep on top of. “I have treatment once a year. I hate it, it is really stressful as I know my skin will hurt. “I will have up to 14 days looking like Freddy Krueger, I can’t go out in public. “I look at my own kids when I have had the treatment and they find it hard to look at me. “I tell them that this is why you put sunscreen on, this is why you are careful.” Melissa first spotted a basal cell carcinoma - a sign of skin cancer - on her leg in 2011. She has since found them on her forehead, nose, chest and back and has lost count of how many have been removed. But in 2018, Melissa discovered what looked like a group of freckles lumped together in front of her ear. Thinking it was best to get it checked out, she paid a visit to her dermatologist. Melissa was then referred her to the Melanoma Institute in June 2018 - which confirmed she had a melanoma. “I was very lucky to have caught it when I did,” she said. “It did make me think that, ‘This is it’. The dread I experienced when I heard that word was really intense. “Having four kids thinking I am not going to be there with them was so overwhelming. “You automatically fast forward to the worst-case scenario.” A month after her diagnosis, Melissa had her melanoma removed. And, two months after her surgery, a biopsy revealed Melissa had Bowen’s disease - an early form of skin cancer. Melissa said: “I am never going to be free from this. “Basically if I don’t have my cancers removed, it can become a more serious invasive cancer.” Since she was diagnosed with Bowen’s syndrome, Melissa undergoes a yearly none-surgical cancer treatment - Photodynamic therapy. Photodynamic therapy is a treatment that involves light-sensitive medicine and a light source to destroy abnormal cells. Melissa said: “I hate it, I get really anxious before I know I am coming up for treatment. “It is really stressful as I know how much it hurts. “My future will be to repeat expensive Photodynamic therapy with CO2 laser every year and always six monthly full skin checks. “It will be the only way to prevent further surgery and keep non-melanoma skin cancers from becoming invasive cancer.” Read More Four bowel cancer symptoms that can show two years before diagnosis Mum put on life support after infected finger led to ‘devastating’ diagnosis 6 mouth cancer symptoms everyone should know Mother left ‘looking like Freddy Krueger’ reveals first skin cancer warning sign Mum put on life support after infected finger led to ‘devastating’ diagnosis 6 mouth cancer symptoms everyone should know

KATHMANDU, Nepal (AP) — Thousands of farmers and their families across Nepal celebrated an annual paddy festival by planting rice, splashing in the muddy fields and enjoying a special feast.

Blake Lively has been widely praised for the bold look she wore to mark her return to New York Fashion Week. The actor has been a mainstay at fashion events throughout her career, from attending runway shows to wowing fans with her ensembles on the red carpet. On Monday (11 September), the former Gossip Girl star further cemented her credentials as a style icon while attending the Michael Kors Spring 2024 show at Domino Park, Brooklyn. Lively, 36, wore a flared, floor-length nude jumpsuit with gold sequins, completed with a narrow beige belt. Her hair was styled in curls with a centre part, and she kept her accessories simple with a few statement rings and hooped earrings. In photos from the event, Lively is seen sitting front row beside former Grey’s Anatomy star Ellen Pompeo. Lively’s disco aesthetic was fitting with the late Sixties and early Seventies theme of the Spring 2024 show. Her attention to detail did not go unnoticed by fans “Gold was inspired by Blake Lively,” one person wrote on Twitter/X, while another crowned her the “ultimate disco queen”. In May, the A Simple Favor star skipped attending the Met Gala, an event she is usually a reliable presence at and co-chaired in 2022. After confirming her absence, she shared an Instagram Story revealing that she spent the evening pumping breast milk. Lively gave birth to her fourth child with fellow screen star Ryan Reynolds in February. Their elder daughters were born in December 2014, September 2016 and October 2019. Speaking to ET Canada in April, Reynolds, 46, spoke about expanding their family and the difference between having four children. “You know, two to three was a huge jump…three to four less so,” he said. “I cannot speak for my wife, but it’s just from what I’ve observed. But, we love it. You know, we would be idiots to do this again if we didn’t love it.” Lively’s next on-screen project will be the highly anticipated adaptation of the bestselling Colleen Hoover novel It Ends With Us. When the first pictures from behind the scenes spread online in May, fans were divided on their thoughts on whether Lively and co-star Justin Baldoni looked like the lead characters they’d envisioned.
