Okay, ladies! Listen up!
If you have not made your appointment for a mammogram, go do it NOW! October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The chances are good that your local facility is running a special on mammograms and you could save some money doing it during October.
If you are forty and have not had one, it's time to get a baseline test. Some doctors will tell you that you only need one every other year until you are fifty, and then one a year. Others will tell you to get one every year. It varies from doctor to doctor. Be on the safe side and get it done. If you catch breast cancer early it can be controlled. Think of all you have to loose by putting it off.
Guys, if you love your wife or your daughters, remind them to get it done. Let them know you care about their health.
This comes under the category of being good to yourself. I know the test can hurt. I know that for some people it's very embarrassing. BUT....it might save your life. GO DO IT!
