No kidding. When the October mammovan found a shadow on one of mine a couple of years ago, I couldn't even get the followup appointment they said I needed till December.
Oh my. December? Do you live in Canada? We lost a friend there who had to wait 3 months for his followup. He died a two weeks before his appointment. That's the way it works there - didn't know this was the way here. What did you end up doing? I assume/hope it was all ok?
Not, only that, but she has a history of breast problems so she should have been having a mammogram at least once a year. Did she not do this? Or wouldn't this have shown up?
