Thank you very much Rosabella for sharing your story! I am very glad you did.. I think it is very important...Because of your story..I will make my appt. for my Mammogram...I have put it off now for two years..my 1st one was 10 years ago...my doctor wanted me to get one, because my mother had a bout with it..she was okay and all, but she did have radiation treatments just to be on the safe side. I absolutely hated it when I got it done...and thats why I have put if off for so long.
Wonderful that you are doing great! & Thank you so much again :)

That's really sweet of you to say that, Madeintahoe :) , and if you do get your mammogram, then my post was worth it! Mammograms aren't so bad, really. Ya just get smashed a little... the hardest thing about them is trying to hold your breath and not move in those awkward positions while they take the x-rays. Anyway - good for you!
