Guess what day this was for me?

June 26, 2020 By Tamera Alexander

Mammogram Day! And here's how it went down . . Click to see the video on YouTube What do you do to celebrate this annual milestone? I told the technician what I was going to do right after and she got so tickled, then said she was going to start celebrating her annual "squishing" too.
