How does my neck look? 6/1/10

My ENT gave me the Ok last week to remove the derma bond tape on the incision today, but I chickened out. Maybe I'll do it tomorrow. I'm just afraid to get it wet, or what about sun exposure? I'm sure it'll all be Ok.

The one question that crossed my mind today was whether or not I am a cancer patient or a cancer survivor. Sure my thyroid and both flavors of cancer have been removed from my body, but I have only passed the first stage of cancer treatment. My radiation iodine treatment starts on July 2, which will be followed by two separate whole body scans. So at this point we don't even know for sure if the cancers ventured outside of my thyroid. So does that make me a cancer patient then?!? I don't know.

But anyway, how does my neck look?
