Mammogram

 At my OB appointment my Dr told me I needed to get a mammogram now every year. I had one a couple of years ago and I had to stop them halfway through so I could sit down because I was going to pass out. I thought it was because I did not eat that morning before my appointment so I made sure to drink my protein shale before mu appointment this time around, It must just be a weak countenance because eI had mostly the same experience this time around. I thought I was doing ok but about 3/4's of the way through I felt like I was going to pass out so I had the technician stop so I could sit down. I put my face between my knees but I had to move down to the floor because I was not doing good. I laid there for a bit and then asked her how much I had left to do. She said I had two more pictures/positions left and I said ok lets go. I got up was was able to get through one picture/position but then had to stop and immediately go back down to the floor. She brought a chair over so I could put my legs up and I laid there until I was feeling better and then we were able to get the last picture done. She had me sit down immediately after we were done and gave me a juice to drink. When I finally made it to the changing room and changed my clothes I took a selfie with my cranberry juice.  On the drive home I decided I needed to reward my self with a doughnut so I stopped at the doughnut store and bought myself my favorite doughnut and took another selfie when I got home. I know I need to do these mammograms every year and I am not looking forward to having to go through this again. I will just have to have doughnuts be my reward every time for going through it.

I don't know why Avynlea snapped this picture but I love it and I love being able to talk to my favorite sister missionary every Sunday night!
Every so often we will go out to dinner with Bob and Alison when they are in town working at the Temple. Kenedy and Tyler were able to go with us since they were also in town and we had a fun night with our favorite Temple workers
