As a woman, and a breast cancer survivor, I would like to urge all of you women to take the time to make an appointment to have a mammogram this month. Don't think that if breast cancer doesn't run in your family that you can't get it, because it didn't run in mine either. Don't be afraid of being diagnosed with breast cancer...be afraid of not finding out in time! Breast Cancer is not a death sentence...especially if it is detected early. A mammogram is not painful...at worst only mildly uncomfortable. (Losing a breast is painful) Don't let fear of hearing the words "breast cancer" keep you from getting an exam. Instead, let the fear of hearing, "it's too late" get you there sooner! I AM A SURVIVOR By Patti " Pepper " Wrycha I am a Survivor Not a statistic of cancer. I am a Survivor Not just a replacement in a clinical study. I am a Survivor Not a relapse waiting to happen. I am a Survivor Not a recurrence in the future. I am a Survivor Filled with Hope Filled with Laughter Filled with years of Life. But it's not the years that matter Instead it is the individual days I Will awake to in health and the love of God, my family and my friends.
