How It Started My life was going along pretty great. I was feeling good in all phases of my life: spiritual, mental, and physical. Work was going well. I was getting ready for our wedding, and getting the van ready for a trip out West. And then I remembered that I needed to get that mammogram scheduled. I got the mammogram. I always have to go back for a second one and an ultrasound, so when that happened I wasn’t too concerned.
