Gisela, I'm sorry, I didn't mean my comment as critizism on your posting the article - thank you very much for taking the time to C&P the link!

I just wanted to express that some things belong in the private sphere of somebody and that the Telegraph should not try to make a whole article from such a non-information. Especially with those attached links.

Jo, I have to say that i understand your comment in a different way. But it´s okay for me now. I don´t want to make a big thing of it!
Thank you for your words (and more) too, Skydragon!

I beg to differ. If it was cancer, the public needs to know. I am glad that it was taken care of, skin cancer (this is me, being a cancer survivor a yearly participant in the Susan G. Komen and ACS'S Relay for Life) has become very, very dangerous.
Though I am pleased it was taken care easily and effectively!

I love the pics of the couple with the Dalai Lama. He's amazing. I read many of his books. The best picture, him locking arms with the couple and walking to the house. Classic.

The Dalai Lama and Prince Charles were probably talking about their methods in talking to plants.

Thank you for posting it.
The criticism was for the paper, it is such a minor procedure that not even a local anaesthetic was required and as with my husband, probably no stitches.
Here in Australia a lot of "spots" like that are "frozen" no cuts or stitches
