I'll start with the light stuff.
Soooooo, this made me LOL (laugh out LOUD!!!). In honor of my post yesterday, let me keep it going! Things ya just don't talk about.

On a more serious note. Today is October 1st. For every female that should mean one thing: get your mammogram.....now. Call. Make that appointment. I don't care that it doesn't run in your family. There is always a first! Don't let it be you that is caught off-guard. I love you. Do it for me.
Monday I called and made my annual mammogram appointment. Was it a pain? Yes. Did I have to repeat everything they SHOULD have in their databank? Oh yeah. Did I finally say: don't you already have this information in your computer; after all, I was here one year ago....and one year before that....and before that....and......
Yes. I was getting frustrated. But I got my appointment.
And here's the kicker. The next day I got an email from a friend whose lab report came back: breast cancer. That message took my breath away. Cancer seems to be on the rise....again. Or maybe it is just hitting closer to home. I have many friends who are cancer-free today, but I have said "good-bye" to a great deal of friends too.
Is it just me or should we have cancer beat by now? Some say there is a cure, but curing cancer would put a great many out of work. I can't go down that road. Cancer touches everyone. Many doctors and researchers go in that field for the very reason that they lost a loved one to damn cancer. Why would they hold back? No, I will not believe that.
During October, let's pray or send positive vibes to end cancer once and for all.
