A Timely Stop and Smell the Roses Wake Up

My husband died very suddenly and I was just becoming part of the functioning human race again when a regular mamogram discovered something 'a little odd' in my left breast. After a lumpectomy and radiation I quickly got back to normal and I praise those people who discovered the 'something odd' . My lump was very small and could not be felt even by the surgeon.

I am now taking time to smell the roses and I encourage others to do so too after having their regular mammogram. Incidentally, here in New Zealand mamograms are free for all women aged 45 - 65, so why wouldn't they have one?
