ELLE - sorry to hear about your husband's cancer. You're doing right in telling people about it.
MARIDE - I agree with you on the tests you mentioned and wondered ...
Do people Go To The Dentist? or do they just let a cavity grow and grow until the tooth falls out.
Do they go to the doctor and have their blood pressure checked and Take medicine for it...or do they wait for a heart attack to happen before taking action.
Guess decisions will have to be made and the individual will have to live with it (or not). Good luck - But I went for the test once and will go every 3 years based on the findings.
