Several weeks ago, as we were trying to schedule our weekly lunch date, my friend casually mentioned that she was going for a mammogram and wouldn’t be able to meet for lunch the following day.  This is a common occurrence, of course, for friends to have mammograms.  But when she told me this, I had a strange feeling about it.  I asked her later how it went, and she said she thought ok, so I shoved aside my worry.   The next week, though, she told me she had gotten a letter to call and schedule more views and an ultrasound.  After that appointment, she called t  Read more >
