New Bra Adventure

New Bra Adventure

     Well I do believe I hit on the right cup size, but guessed too small on the other. One more try should get me into the right size bra. What can I say, I'm a woman of few clothes these past couple years since I've gotten sick. It's diabetes and hypothyroidism. In my case both are managable if I take care of myself and take my pills which I haven't been. The point is I expect to lose some weight when I go back on my pills. So I'm not returning this bra. After a couple inches I'm back or rather their back in the saddle again.

     Well, I've yet to hear about anyone coming up with an accurate way to measure large chested women for their bras, so I had to "wing" it. I'm guessing on the cup but there's no way to tell without trying it on. Remember, when you get into your fifties and your large to say the least, they no longer stand at attention, they kind of lay on your tummy and talk to your knees. I'll let you know how it goes when it arrives. Stores normally don't carry anything past a DD so I had to order one from On-line.

Still Fighting Over Breast Cancer Screenings

Still Fighting Over Breast Cancer Screenings

     The experts are still fighting over breast cancer screenings and mammograms. One side says they are important and have saved thousands of lives and the other side says they cost women to be treated for cancers which they simply don't have. Of course let's not forget the bottom line in all this is still money.

     When they figure out which is cheaper and for whom it is cheaper then they will direct us towards that advice. What a terrible way to manage finding a disease that has claimed so many lives. What are we to do?

Breast Updates

     This is just a reminder to pay some attention to your breast health by examining them even if you are a man. Remember that men get breast cancer too. I ran across a story on the news not long ago about a married couple that were both diagnosed with breast cancer at the same time. The wife discovered hers first and the husband was so concered about her that he wanted to know what she felt at first, and there he discovered a lump.

     Their story works out fine, as they were both caught early enoungh for effective treament and are now clear of the disease. Good for them!
