Today Tim was seen at the dermatologist for this:
They told us it's Beckers Nevus. That's basically a fancy name for a huge mole/birthmark that can get darker and grow thick hair (which it's starting to do). It affects 1% of the population. It's more common in males than females. There's nothing that can be done for it. They don't know what causes them. It's believed to be related to a genetic predisposition. It doesn't cause any health issues. If the hair gets thicker or darker there are things we can do for dealing with it but none of them are covered by medical insurance which totally stinks.
