I do hope bringing this to the top every few weeks gets the attention of new members who can click on here. Of course it's also a reminder to the entire membership. Thanks for helping those less fortunate than us.

Today is one year since this thread got started. I hope it helps, and that many of you remember to click on as often as you can. It's allowed daily....
Thanks.
Phyllis -
Just bringing this to the top again. I don't want it to get lost.
Phyllis -
Trying to keep this in sight so all the new members get to read here and click on.
Phyllis -
When clicking onto the help women here, scroll down a little. There are a few other organizations you can also help. The whole thing takes about three minutes. Of course you can stay longer to shop if you want to.
Phyllis -
To the top again and again.

Hi everyone,
I just saw the message that as of December first, each click will count double. I guess it will be for the entire month. So, with all your holiday busy-ness, please remember to click on here as much as you can. (Only once a day, though.)

Bringing this to the top again.

Bringing this to the top again. While here, I want to wish everyone Happy, Healthy, Holidays. Feel well!

I believe bringing this back to the top every few weeks gives new members a chance to join us here with helping others. So, it's back to the top again.

It's time to bring this to the top again.

Thanks Blundin 2005.
Hopefully your information will help others. It's always good to know that people are reading this thread. And, that they too, are trying to help. Sometimes I wonder, and whenever someone writes in, I feel that yes, it is being read.

It's time to bring this to the top again.

I continue to bring this back up to the top so that new people can also help these women. Sorry to see that there are always new names on our boards.
Phyllis -
I have made it a habit to go there each day.This is a great program they have.
-
Thanks for bumping it up. It's a good reminder for all of us!
-
I almost missed updating this thread. I've been extra busy for the past few weeks with medical problems. (What else is new?)Hope you are all doing nicely.
-
Just updating this again. Sisters, I'm going to be very busy for the next month. Rather than let this thread slip out of sight, please, anyone who notices it going back a page, be my guest and update it so others will be able to see it and join in the helping process. Thanks so much.
Happy holidays to all.
Phyllis -
Ok, I sent it out to everyone also. Great site.
-
I'm back, but it will take days (weeks?) to reorganize and get all my computer "stuff" updated. Manos, thanks so much for updating this for me and for recognizing the importance of this site.
Phyllis -
To the top once more.
-
Thanks to those of you who read here and click onto the various parts of this thread, even after clicking on for the women who cannot afford.... It takes a minute and does so much good in so many places.
Phyllis -
To the top again to keep this site in sight.

EVERY STATE IN THE UNITED STATES OFFERS FREE MAMMOGRAPHY. CALL ALL YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD HOSPITALS AND ASK FOR THE BREAST CARE CENTER CLINIC. THE BREAST CARE CENTER CLINIC WILL ADVISE YOU ON WHERE YOU CAN GO TO HAVE A FREE MAMMOGRAPHY. OTHER RESOURCES ARE: www.healthfinder.com, www.centerwatch.com,
www.nabco.com, www.komen.org Never worry about having to pay for a Mammograpy. Another suggestion is to go to every hospital you know and walk in personally and ask for the breast care center. You'll be very surprised to find out how many hosptials offer Free mammographies. Good luck -
Thank you Happy 7 for this information. This site is still useable, though. In addition to helping women who cannot afford mammograms, if one scrolls further down the page, one can also click on for a few other things they can help with. Look and see. It only takes a minute. Partly, it's books for children, health for children, animal rescue, and more.
Phyllis -
Bringing this to the top once again.
Phyllis -
We can't let this get lost to a back page, so I'm updating once again.

It's summer, and so many people are away on vacation. I noticed the number of "clicks" for this mammogram site are at a lower level than in other months. So if you can, please click on the six headings in this thread, and help others in need one way or another. Thanks so much.

I click on this site everyday it is a great thing to do I have it as my signature on most all the sites I get on. I emailed it to all my friends and Family and every so often I email it to them again as a reminder
