Hey @Beyonce, I’m a cancer doc taking care of this huge fan @SylvesterCancer who is missing your #MIA concert as she is hospitalized for a bone marrow transplant. Can you send her some love or stop by her room? Look how her friends decorated her hospital room. #TiffStrong

My journey to #melanoma started when I was 13 when 2 moles were removed. Both fine but told not to #tan. I tanned regardless 🙄 luckily stopping in my 20's. Diagnosed with #cancer in 2015 in my 30's. Have had 21 biopsies. Believe me, no tan is worth dying for. #cancersurvivor
