Hi Jen,
Good for you. I was happy to read your post saying you have scheduled the appointment. Please don't let anyone make you feel as if you are somehow "not right" because of your feelings of apprehension and fear over having the mammogram done and what the results might be. Having had family members with cancer can be and is very frightening. The fear of the unknown is also very frightening. I know me personally, sometimes I have the "I'd rather not know" syndrome. We're human for goodness sake and fear is part of who we are at times.
That being said, I'm happy you've decided to "tackle that demon called fear" and get the mammogram done. Think how happy you'll be when the results come back and you are told you are fine.
Hugs to you Jen and a prayer for courage and peace,
Mary Jo
