Okay, I want to take the time to talk about boobs, and hear me out.
It's important.
I haven't been around much lately, I'm okay. I've been busy taking care of my mother in law with dementia. But, my sister recently found out she has breast cancer.
She had her first mammogram at 41, and unfortunately, we found out yesterday, it has spread. We are still hopeful it's treatable, but y'all. If you are 40, or about to be, or know someone who is, do not put off getting a mammogram.
Get one asap.
Procrastination is not in your favor with this.
If you have a family history of cancer, talk to your doctor and get a mammogram and genetic testing sooner than 40. I'm 38, just had a mammogram and found out I also need to have an mri every six months as well because my boobs are dense and apparently that increases risk.
You can even get them younger.
Sooner is better.
Don't ignore symptoms. My Mom put off seeing a Dr for pain in her side and passed away from bile duct cancer. I cannot emphasize enough to listen to your body, and go see your physician.
I knew someone who's cough turned out to be lung cancer, someone else's painful urination was bladder cancer.
Check that prostate and colon too, all the bits, whatever bits you've got, get them checked. Please.
If you've been putting something off, this is your sign to make the appointment and get it done.
If you've never been checked, it's not too late. If you think you're too young, you are not.
So please, talk with your friends, family, relationships, situationships, frenemies, neighbors, whatever people you have, help keep them safe.
