Take Care of Yourself

I am a breast cancer survivor. I have been cancer free for one year and a three months. On Friday I went to the Baptist Women's Pavilion for my 6 month mammogram. It was all clear. Such happy words to hear! I certainly had a joyous and thankful heart all weekend(and still do).


For all my friends of a certain age out there, please schedule your mammogram. To my younger friends, please do your monthly self check exams. None of this is difficult, so please take the time to do it. Jack Feather, one of my very dear friends, died of breast cancer. So gentleman, you are not immune. Pay attention to your body.


If caught early, breast cancer can be treatable. Please take care of yourself.
