PREPARING FOR YOUR MAMMOGRAM:

Many woman are afraid of their mammogram, but there is no need to worry. By
taking a few minutes each day for a week preceding the exam and doing the
following practice exercises, you will be totally prepared. And best of all, you
can do these simple practice exercises right in the privacy of your own home.

Exercise No. 1:
Freeze two metal bookends overnight. Strip to the waist.Invite a stranger into
the room. Place one bookend on each side of your breast. Press the bookends
together as hard as you can. Set an appointment with the stranger to meet again
next year and do it again. Repeat all steps on the other breast.

Exercise No. 2:
Open your refrigerator door and insert one breast between the door and the
main box. Have one of your strongest friends (or a stranger) slam the door shut
as hard as possible and lean on the door for good measure. Hold that position
for five seconds. Don't breathe. REPEAT again in case the first time wasn't
effective enough. REPEAT all steps on the other breast.

Exercise No. 3:
Visit your garage at 3:00 a.m. when the temperature of the concrete floor is
just perfect (anywhere below 32 degrees).Take off all your warm clothes and lay
comfortably on the floor with one breast wedged tightly under the rear tire of
the car. Ask a friend to slowly back the car up until the breast is sufficiently
flattened and chilled. Turn over and repeat for the other breast.

CONGRATULATIONS! Now you are properly prepared for your
mammogram.
