A Mammogram?
well, I guess this is just part of it: screening NEW territory! Having had cancer at a young age and a family history of breast cancer, my oncologist thought it would be best to get a mammogram done. I guess I'm "at risk" for getting other cancers since I already had cancer! So with that being said,I had my 1st ever base-line mammogram done this morning. What a cinch!(or should I pinch!)LOL! I wish my rectal exams were that easy and painless( I have a high pain tolerance:-) and well I don't feel the colonoscopy cause I'm out cold! I wasn't nervous ,just something to check off on my to-do list! But I did have that thought in the back of my head,what if they find something? The Colondar's, March model, recently found out she had stage 0 breast cancer and just underwent a double mastectomy! Such a strong inspiration! They gave me a pink organza pouch with a real freshwater pearl ready to string. Ooooh Aaaah! Nice gesture...What do you think they should give someone who's just had a colonoscopy?

Colonoscopy souvenier, that's a tough call, but the pearl is a nice touch!
