summer Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Just a click on the Breast Cancer site http://www.thebreastcancersite.com/ to pay for a free mammogram, it only takes a few seconds Please tell ten friends to tell ten today! The Breast Cancer site is having trouble getting enough people to click on their site daily to meet their quota of donating at least one free mammogram a day to an underprivileged woman. It takes less than a minute to go to their site and click on 'donating a mammogram' for free (pink window in the middle). This doesn't cost you a thing. Their corporate sponsors /advertisers use the number of daily visits to donate mammogram in exchange for advertising. Here's the web site! Pass it along to people you know. http://www.thebreastcancersite.com/ AGAIN, PLEASE TELL 10 FRIENDS TO TELL 10 TODAY Charter Member 2011 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punarbhava Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Thanks for this post Summer. I honoured your request. Just went into the site and clicked as per your instructions. I will pass this along to a few friends. What if we were to go into the site on a daily basis? It only took me seconds (not minutes) to support a worthy cause. I'm going to place a note on my computer desk so I can click on the link each morning. Punar To Face My Trials with "The Grace of a Woman Rather Than the Grief of a Child".

summer Posted July 23, 2011 Author Share Posted July 23, 2011 That's wonderful, Pun - and a great way for each of us to do our little part. It really does take only a few seconds. I try to remember to do it, yet forget often too. Maybe we could all remind one another. Charter Member 2011 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punarbhava Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 That's wonderful, Pun - and a great way for each of us to do our little part. It really does take only a few seconds. I try to remember to do it, yet forget often too. Maybe we could all remind one another. Did it yesterday and again today thanks to the note in front of my computer work space. Hope every member (both male and female) takes a few seconds to click on the site since, it's NOT okay for any person (male or female) to be denied any form of health care.

angie007 Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Hi Summer, I come here everyday for a free click - all for a brilliant cause!!!! Began taking 30mg Seroxat on 15th Jan 1997 for grief issues. Remained at that dosage until Dec 05, did doctor ct, akathesia set in along with being non functional and overly emotional, brain fog. Doctor prescribed prozac, propranelol and diazeapam to counteract side effects, and told me to ct those 3 after 2.5/3 months use, induced wd seizure on 2nd day after ct. Was reinstated on seroxat 20mg in april 06, remained at that dose until Nov 07 and began a very slow taper lasting 56 months, finally DRUG FREE on 11th may 2011.

brighteningup Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Also clicking. My Mum was successfully treated for cancer in early 60s after it was picked up by a scan. As it was caught early she didn't need chemo and she's been in remission for 9 years now. Citalopram for 6 months Since then tapering off over last 4 months 20mg -> 15mg -> 10mg -> 5mg (roughly every 3-4 weeks) Stayed at 2.5mg for approx 6 weeks As of 9 Sept 2011 off citalopram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Pink..... Our Universal health care does have it's problems along with gaps and inequities however, I am grateful for what we do have. I'm not familiar with the system in Australia though and who knows your system may even be better than ours in many ways. (lol) You have a nice day as well Pink!
