I kept an appointment to go for my mammogram,
Nervously checking in, and then sitting down.
 
As I looked around the waiting room,
There were five lovely ladies sitting
With their heads all down ~ not looking around.

I thought, for a minute, that we are so scared
Of the results that we may hear.

I did not know a single one there.
Yet, I bowed my head and said a little prayer.
 
Let us leave here with a smile on our face.
Just wait another year and come back to this place.
 
Someone may possibly be told to come back,
"A lump has been found and you must not be lax."
More tests will be needed and, so, the fear sets in.

This is a must for the ladies like us,
To go for that yearly test that we fear so much.
Please go and get checked.  God will be there.
 
He holds our hands and our heart can feel that.
Just make the appointment, go for the test.
You will feel better and, for a year, you can rest.
 
God bless the ladies that have been diagnosed
With breast cancer ~ that, we probably dread the most.
