Today I had my boobs squeezed in a machine for the first time. I was scared for no reason whatsoever so I put it off. If you haven’t gotten your boobs checked, do it - for you and the people who care about you.

Yesterday was a good day... I had a #mammogram and a bone scan that returned normal results.

Two years ago, a mammogram revealed #breastcancer in my left breast (which has since been removed via #mastectomy).

Last year, the mammogram on my right breast showed something suspicious requiring a more intensive mammogram and then a followup mammogram 6 months later. I am relieved for the all clear on the right breast this year.

Cancer sucks big time! But today I celebrate.
