is Breast Cancer awareness month and I'm here to remind you to get your
mammo. I got hit 2X in the same breast (found by mammo) which resulted in the breast being removed and saving my life. And ladies, please have your husband or significant other that he is not immune and to check his breast for any unusual lumps. If he does, have him to get to the doctor pronto!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -- Rita http://ritasquilts.com |

And if you don't automatically get your mammogram results back from your
doctor, do NOT just presume that "No news is good news". Always take the initiative and make sure that you get your test results.

Are you all getting colonoscopies also? Colon cancer is really treatable if
it is caught early. Not a fun test but if you are over 50 it needs to be done. Taria "Rita" wrote in message ... is Breast Cancer awareness month and I'm here to remind you to get your mammo.

"Sandy" wrote, in part: Dexascans (for osteoporosis) are a cake walk. Well, not exactly, Sandy. They really have a hard time doing that scan on me. I am in the high target group for osteoporosis - Caucasian skinny - ( did you know that was the likeliest group?) and they keep a close watch on me. I exercise and take calcium and vit d but the testing is embarrassing. I am ticklish. Every time the nice tech tries to reach her cold icy hand out and press my hip bone down flat against the table I laugh hysterically. She leaves and tries later. I breathe and try to relax. She tries again. I go into a fit of giggles. I can just see them at the bone clinic reviewing the next day's schedule and saying " I tried Ms Esther last year, now it's your turn" and then the fight starts. Polly |

I had a scan of the big bone in my heel. Doesn't that work? It was
easy and comfortable, involved a tank of warm water. I wished they would do the other foot too!
