Re: It should be the law...!
ABSOLUTELY Andi...Leah!!! I had a mammogram JUST Friday as it has been nearly a year ago this month that I "found" my pea! All I heard for the last few years or more...you have such "dense breasts!"
Unbelievable...I had a few "pictures" of my left breast... waited...called back for a "few" more, I waited again...then, the I was asked to get my clothes and was told I was going to have an Ultrasound!! As I laid there...I can't even describe the thoughts that raced through my mind...(you can imagine!!)...she was telling me the doctor apparently saw something and wanted another closer look...DUHHH...
Those minutes she walked away and came back in, told me I could get dressed, everthing was fine, was almost something I NEVER want to imagine AGAIN...indeed, where was the Ultrasound years ago...????
I truly was Thanking God as I walked out the door!!!
