i know how time flies. the next thing you know the month is gone. So we need to remind each other.
a group of my online friends sends out a monthly email reminder and we all email back after we have done our self exam. i thought we could start a new thread each month and just hit the thank you button after you have done your exam. discussion and thoughts would be awesome too. please do your exam. it only takes about 5 minutes. spread the word to your other friends here. i know not everyone ventures outside their home forum. we could save a life. here is link that shows you how to do a self breast exam. http://www.breastcancer.org/symptoms.../bse_steps.jsp

THANK YOU & THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
As a survivor [HATE that word] I cannot understate how important it is to check, and be checked! My cancer was caught early. Due to my severe neuropathy, I never could 'feel' the lump, but I gotta tell you all I do not miss it one whit!. Think of it this way? That most of the time, the 'c' can have something done about it. In a way, its good to be proactive about one condition? 's to all....my arms aren't big enough to give you all the hugs of appreciation I should give you all. Curious, this is important. Finding out too late is not and should not be what happens to US! Again, another thank you. - j |

Just wanted to say what a great and thoughtful idea this is!!!!
Awhile back, in our area, they had a program called Buddy Check 12, or something like that, that my best friend and I still do to this day. On the 12th day of the month one or the other of us call each other to remind about 'the exam', and we also contact other women who are close to us to remind them as well. God Bless you All!!! Dawn
