Tawny Willoughby, a 27-year-old from Alabama and mother of a 2-year-old, posted a selfie with her skin cancer treatment to Facebook as a warning against the dangers of tanning. First diagnosed at 21, she says she has had basal cell carcinoma five times and squamous cell carcinoma once.

She writes on Facebook, “I probably laid an average of 4-5 times a week,” but “I never laid in the tanning bed and in the sun in the same day. I never laid in the tanning bed twice in one day.”
