Fall temps have finally hit Texas! The cooler temps have given me a little more pep in my step on my morning walks. I also find that I sleep better when it's chilly outside.
I am finished with all of my check-ups for 2024. Good news for me—no more pap smears! Now, my physical is reduced to drawing a clock and repeating three words they tell me to remember ten minutes later.
I got a C-.
I had the all-over spot check done by my dermatologist. My doctor asked me if I minded if a student witnessed my unveiling. The girl looked like she wasn't a day over thirteen.

I will never forget the look of horror on the girl's face when she saw me in my birthday suit. Before she lost all color in her face and ran out of the room, I told her this is your future, kid.
You could not find a lovelier, more hospitable, and competent group of women than at my mammogram place. I arrived at 8:55 and was back in my car at 9:15.
Having a mammogram is the scariest part of my check-up routine. My mother passed away from breast cancer 20 years ago. I usually get my results within 24 hours, but to my dismay, there was no note in my mailbox with a cheery message telling me I was clear for another year.
I finally called the place after 3 anxiety-filled days, with my head bursting with all sorts of frightening scenarios. I didn't fill the Mister or the girls in on my quandary. The last thing I wanted was for the Mister to sign up on Tinder or the girls looking into getting my jewelry appraised.
I spoke to Whitney, who was the bearer of good news.
Evidently, the letter went to my spam file.

I celebrated by sending money to St. Jude's Research Hospital, the benefactor of all of my anxiety-ridden moments.

Sorry you had a scary couple of days following your mammogram. I found out that the Ontario breast screening programme no longer sends out letters to let you know you are in the clear and as a breast cancer survivor, I was visiting the mailbox every day, not knowing that part of the progamme was cancelled. I finally had to install an app that allows you to see all of your medical test results. Ugh!
