Ewan McGregor, other stars had skin cancer
Scottish actor Ewan McGregor, 37, was recently diagnosed with skin cancer. He is fine, he reports, and is thankful his suspicious-looking mole, which turned up as cancer, has been removed from below his right eye.Says McGregor: "You have to be careful if you're pale-skinned and spend any time in the sun,"
On March 25, CNN newsman Anderson Cooper shared that he had a similar scare, followed by minor surgery to remove a spot of cancer from under his left eye. And last week, Bruce Springsteen's E Street Bandmate Danny Federici died of melanoma. He was 58 and had battled the disease for three years.
The American Cancer Society estimates this year that 62,480 new cases of melanoma will be diagnosed in the United States. Melanoma will claim the lives of 8,420.
