    I am a five year survivor. The yearly mammogram caught my cancer early and I was only stage 1. My sister and a friend of mine skipped a year between mammograms and they had stage 2 cancer when there's was detected. They needed chemo and radiation. Get that yearly exam and especially if you are in a high risk group.

    Mine was found early with a mammogram. I truly believe they are lifesavers. I am a six year survivor!

    Self exams are the first step - who knows your body better then yourself.
