The Claire Marie Foundation was established in 2014 following the death of Claire Marie Wagonhurst, a sparkling 17 year old who lost a long battle with adolescent melanoma as a result of changes her body went through during puberty.
This is so sad. It's true. My son had a mole that had been there since he was a baby and began to flatten out, darken and spread when he reached puberty. The pathology came back showing dysplastic changes and the derm told us puberty can trigger these things. I have also been told that the hormone changes of pregnancy can be a trigger.
