That is what I am waiting on mainly. I haven't been done with rads that long. But, I still might push my mammo way back. I know they will be gentle, or, they had better be! Kind of helpless when you are scrunched into that machine. Can't really get out of it, now can we?

It would harder than
Lex,
It would harder than poor Tink trying to get through that keyhole. I couldn't help it, I looked over at your adorable avatar and thought of us trying to wiggle out of the mammo machine. Wouldn't be nearly and cute, though, and more painful I am sure. My 1st mammo was not bad at all, not really any different than any other mammo I have had. Took 2 tylenol a hour before and I was good to go. And yes, they try to be as gentle as possible.
