Re: critics cry "foul" to DO MAMMOGRAMS SAVE LIVES STUDY

Dear Sara,
I hope the following link of patient safety will help ease your concerns a little. Mammograms have the lowest (see the list).
What is vital is that your aggressive HER2 cancer was discovered early by the exam. Your way ahead.
Which I am happy for you dear sister you will be celebrating 10 years very soon.....
hugs Jean
