For your info, I never knew Mohs was named after anyone until a couple of years ago.....when someone I knew was having the Mohs surgery. 


If one goes through life being as helpful (not accommodating) as one can be?  It truly will pay off........

It is not a great writing, any way you do it, that's for sure.
