Kathy G said...

No lumpkins in my pumpkins :-)

Jamie Ghione said...

Thanks for sharing. I had a mammogram in March.

Lady M said...

Mine are less like ripe pumpkins and more like 6 month old pumpkins that have gone somewhat saggy and deflated.

Debra She Who Seeks said...

@ Lady M -- Oh, I hear ya, sistah. Ditto!

Boud said...

The law now requires the mammo center to notify you of your breast composition, very reassuring, to cystic ladies like me. Yes, do check.

I like the pumpkins one! My SIL just got a breast cancer ribbon tattoo.

Hello Debra, My grandmother had an operation for breast cancer and lived for over fifty more years (to age 101). Treating breast cancer promptly can have positive and impressive results.

MOL!!!!

Moving with Mitchell said...

I don’t have pumpkins. Pancakes maybe? But mine should be given a good feel regularly, too.

Mistress Maddie said...

Im proud to say that first picture is our state capital building....and is indeed pink for the month!!!!!

Debra She Who Seeks said...

@ Mistress Maddie -- Very cool!

Mary Kirkland said...

Absolutely. We don't want lumpkins in our pumpkins.

Mike said...

A male cousin of mine had breast cancer. It was caught in time.

Tasker Dunham said...

Men can get it too.

Marie Smith said...

Will do!

angela said...

Now that I’m old I get a free breast exam every two years for free. They even send out notification letters. It used to start at age fifty but they now have dropped it to 45.

Kirk said...

Two great ways to get the message across.

Such an important reminder! I just had a mammogram over the summer.

Not sure why October is the chosen month for this but all awareness is good!

Debra She Who Seeks said...

@ This N That -- Yes, it is -- another blogger (Mistress Maddie) from the region identified it for me as well!
