Who in turn hooked me up with the American Cancer Society , the Center for Health and Wellness , Witness in the Heartland , Victory in the Valley and Komen . I had no idea that all these places exist and they co-exist with a partnership that is just awesome.

I was playing with my grandson and he kind of jumped at me, to jump in my arms, and I felt a sharp pain. That's when I noticed the lump. She thought it might be cancer so I would need a mammogram. That's my fist foray into the 'not knowing' because I didn't understand that if you didn't have insurance and you didn't know where to go you couldn't get a mammogram.
