Thanks everyone!

Robin - Johanna sums it up just right, it`s a smooshed boob exam ! But it`s not too bad, and certainly well worth the discomfort in having it done.

Logan - I know what you mean. But though I am usually uncomfortable with any, shall we say, personal, exam, and in spite of the fact my test is usually done, in the mobile unit, parked in a supermarket car park, I have so far somehow found it oddly non-embarrassing! I think it may be because there are just two people, the receptionist clerk and the person who actually does the test, plus of course one or two others waiting too. Not a long wait either. It is the waiting for the results that is long, September 8 is when I had my test done!

Lynne - don`t think I will have that drinkie, my favourtie tipple is Jack and Coke and these days even a small one - which isn`t really worth having - goes straight to my head ...... though come to think of it .... maybe it is good idea after all!

Micki - I am sorry to hear you are ill I hope you are feeling better very soon.

Luckies - hope all goes well for your mom tommorrow, she will be in my prayers.

Alicia - Well, I don`t know that it was in celebration, but when Bob and I were out for our walk this morning he picked up and gave me two bottle tops, a straw and a ring pull from a milk carton, (he also didn`t give me but ate something, and I don`t really think I want to know what it was!).

Robin and Micki Good luck with your tests next month and next week respectively, hope the results turn out as good as mine. You will both be in my thoughts and prayers. Hugs

Once again, thanks everyone!
