I meant to put this out here Oct 1
October is breast cancer awareness month.
My mother died of breast cancer.
5 years later, my doctor at the time found a lump in me, It was biopsied, the cells were irregular, but judged benign.
The following year, a new lump was back in the same place the other had been removed. My doctor suggested only that if it was there the following year he'd order a mammogram.
I objected and said I want one now, so he ordered it.
It was cancer and I am now 35 plus years post breast cancer.
Please, get your check ups and don't hesitate to speak up.
To all those fighting this, my heartfelt thoughts and support.
