Avril
I too availed of the service, via the Big Bus. It was conveniently located close to Ballymena, thus saving me a drive to Belfast - and I booked online too.
Like you, I was nervous, although moreso of the result than the process itself. I've been reliably informed by my peers that the ample bosomed amongst us feel less pain! I felt no pain, so can concur with this opinion

This is a great post Avril and a great way to raise awareness. I was randomly selected for early screening last year and I'll be honest I also kept putting it off, I'm such a wimp, it wasn't the most enjoyable of experiences and I was terrified of the results but thankfully the results were normal. I don't blame you for having 2 wagon wheels though - they're not half as big as they were when I was a bairn! xx

Great post Avril. Having a mammogram is not the most pleasant experience, I'd rather be looking at clothes on the internet - obvs - but it's so important. I'm glad to hear your results came back clear xx

Such an important thing to do - the mammogram AND the shopping! I get one every year due to my mother's breast cancer. Between that and my own cancer check ups, I've regular scary intervals annually. But all are important. Must check out that new charity shop - no idea where it is - must go hunting!

GREAT blog post and I hope someone somewhere is prompted to go for a mammogram off the back of this.
Can I just say ... your charity shops are so stylish! Ours our like the traditional ones we all know and love - with the special smell that can only come with hundreds of items from hundreds of clothes!

Thanks for sharing this Avril. It is the kind of thing we all put off and push to the back of our minds but seeing and hearing about your experience makes it seem a lot less scary. What a relief that you didn't have to wait too long and your results were normal xx

Thanks for this Avril - such an important topic to share and one close to my heart. Who cares if it's off topic when it could potentially save someone's life. Very glad your results were clear and I'll def visit the new shops - a friend was telling me how great the furniture one is.

Great post Avril & what a fantastic service, you are indeed lucky. And the shop...... I'd love a browse around it (bit of a trek from Cork unfortunately)..
