I'm worried about my Mum?...?

Sun damage is often caused when young but the trouble doesn"t surface until older.All you can do is tell her you want her to apply sun cream you can't make her do it so perhaps for birthday or Xmas Presents that's what you can buy her. There are some lovely moisturising and face creams out now that have sun screen in them. I hope she wears a hat and sun gles. I know about damaged skin. I'm older and didn't protect myself. Luckily for me No skin cancers but I do have some sun damage and occionally need some spots chemically burnt off so they don't turn to Cancer . Also look at the older lady who has spent years in the sun and the lady who never goes in the sun. then you will also see The sun worshippers face has more wrinkles.I know when I was younger I was so proud of my tanned legs and love to wear mini skirts today I try and cover my legs but they aren't that bad for a retired lady. I'm pleased the message has got through to you as when I was young people didn't know about the damage and possibly not so much when your Mum was young. so you are one of the lucky age group that has been taught and you have taken it in. Good for you.
