Hi John...LOL...glad it made you look. Good health is very important and many women avoid tests that could help prevent major issues. Hopefully many women will take advantage of this free testing. Have a great afternoon.

Hi Judith....this is a very serious issue.....every woman must have a mammogram test.....it's so important....if you know anyone who has had breast cancer, it's not a laughing matter.....not any more than advanced prostate cancer.....now that's something to chuckle about isn't it????

Hi Barbara, you are the best...you put it in a light that both men and women can understand. I have lost a brother and father to cancer and cancer in any area of the body is not funny. Thank you for your support!

I confess the title brought me here real quick. But very important information nonetheless.

Hi Robert, please encourage the women in your life to take care of themselves and get their annual exams. Life is so precious. Have a nice evening.

Judith, that's a very meaningful service to provide to those who would otherwise not be able to afford it.

Hi Silvia, I had to post when I read about this upcoming service. So many need but can't afford a mammogram. Hopefully it will help and catch some attention. Thanks for your comment.

Judith.. It is very good to see this being offered for FREE. There are a lot of women who don't have insurance, and having this could save their life.

Have I mentioned to you that I need to go in for surgery. Guess what part of the body? Please don't worry.. it isn't that bad.

This is a great service Judith. I'm betting their are a number of women these days who do not have the money to have this done. I'm going to see if there is something like going on in my area and post about it. Excellent post!

Free mammograms? Awesome, what a wonderful program with so many folks today having a high deductible policy or no coverage at all. Thanks Judith, hope all is well in Charlotte.

Judith your title just made me laugh out loud! I had to see how many men click and actually commented...kudos to those of them that had the machismo enough to admit it...My hat of to you guys.

Breast cancer is a very big deal. I use to carry my cell phone in my breast pockets. Now I have a lump in each breast. I can't help but think that had something to do with it. Now I carry my phone in my purse and not on my body.

Both are benign, thank you Jesus. I need to go back and get another check up after my up coming surgery...
