I'm taking a cue from Ann and gone pink for Breast Cancer Awareness month. My mother's battle began with breast cancer. She found her lump and waited 3 months before going to the doctor, by that point the cancer had attached itself to her chest wall and spread to her lymph nodes.
I am 35 now and I'm planning on getting my first mammogram soon.
Most importantly, don't forget those monthly self exams and if you find something please don't wait, head straight to your doctor.
My mother might be here today if she hadn't waited.

I had my first ever mammogram this year, it was not as awful as I thought it would be. Will be doing it every two years from now on....
Great message, love. I got my first at 35 (this year) b/c of a family history. Brought big peace of mind!!! xo.
