Re: Some encouraging news..
I am Dutch, and although my cancer was found years earlier - at age 44 - and I'm being checked annually through the BC follow-up program, I still keep receiving invites for the screening.
They are thorough and they keep nagging us about it. Also, the screening is free and carried out in mobile units that come to people's local shopping centres. I think those factors contribute to the success.
