I am honored that Aunt Jean forwarded this letter. Willowby is very concerned about the effect of the sun, He wears sun glasses and his umbrella hat each day he is out in the sun. Willowby is worried that others are not taking the proper precautions. He is worried that sun damage will cause skin cancer or melanoma. Like Willowby, I worried for them.
Skin cancer begins in childhood.
Cataracts begin in childhood. A light cause harm. Partly because they are usually out in the sun longer than most adults. Children also have a larger skin surface when compared with the rest of the body. Children s reserve is much less than adults.
