Thank you everyone for your comments! Everything that you have written really makes a lot of sense and you all have excellent and well-thought-out ideas and suggestions. I agree with you, and I know my friend would too, that she can't push her friend to get a mammogram. I guess one thing we can do is just talk about it and other regular exams when we get them done and casually mention how they really aren't that big of a deal, etc. Like you said, it's not like this nice lady isn't aware of the importance of doing the test, she for whatever reason just hasn't done it, and we have to respect that. Thank you again, and of course if anyone else has anything else to add please feel free! I'm passing along these comments to my friend so she can see what all you have been saying, and I know she really appreciates your thoughts. Michelle
