Nothing is Perfect

By Barb Gordon

Barb GordonNo one method of detection is perfect. I happened to put my finger right on a lump one day. I will have to admit, I did not do regular self exams and my first routine mammogram did not find it.  The lump was already one and one half centimeters by then, stage one.
