I have been very lucky that I do not know anyone close to me who has died of breast cancer. I do know of several woman who have had breast cancer and beat it.

Now that I am 42, I am supposed to get a mammogram, but for some reason I have been putting it off. The year I turned 40 was when I had my hysterectomy, so I used that as an excuse. Now, i’m not sure why I haven’t gone. But this month with all of the awareness of breast cancer, it has reminded me that I need to JUST DO IT.

So, why is it that we, women put this stuff off? Are we afraid of what we’ll find out? Are we too busy? I do know that I’m going to feel much worse if I finally go, they find something and I could have done something sooner. So, I need to just DO IT.

Y’all need to tweet me a daily reminder and if you are due for your mammogram, Just DO IT!

Tomorrow’s How do you PINK? post wil be at Faith, Hope & Love.
