Mammogram Monday

A few weeks ago I saw an article for free mammograms for uninsured women.I wrote the number down and called to see if I qualified.

They called me on Friday and gave me the good news,I qualified.I am scheduled for tomorrow at 4:15 p.m.
I'm a little nervous but I know how important this is.Please wish me luck and prayers would be helpful too.

I have to thank redimpala for her post about getting her mammogram done recently.She is a WONDERFUL lady.

Laurie, I'm sure that you've already had this done and gotten your results. You and all of these other ladies here are quite brave... It is a procedure that has saved many lives.

Let's hope the news is good. If not, you go from there.

Good for you. I didn't think it hurt at all, just a little uncomfortable. Beats the alternative, ya know?

I don't know that much about mammograms other then women of all ages should get them. Don't be stubborn like us men. I hate medical tests but I know that catching things early gives us a better chance at life. You will be on my prayer list tonight.

I've got to wait over six weeks for mine.

A mammogram saved my life. I encourage every woman over forty to have a yearly mammogram. But don't rely only on the mammogram. Be sure to do your monthly self-exams as well.

Good for you hon. I got my reminder in the mail the other day that it was time for mine again. So, I will be setting that appointment up this week.

Good for you! Early detection is the key. I'm sure you will be fine and of course you have my thoughts and prayers!
