I also believe it was not a respectful way to talk about the OP’s wife’s breasts.

Glad to hear it, **TokyoBayer**! I had a personal brush with this fairly recently, and understand how scary it can be, even when you know the odds are it’s nothing.

> Mammograms give you a dose of radiation and cause cancer. If you got a tiny cancer growth in many cases change your lifestyle. Eat good food. Get exercise. Drink oxygenated water. Many times they are caused by cell phones. They are caused from cell damage and irritation. But cancer is in your body all the time. A growth starts does not mean take off your breasts. Also, quit wearing tight bras, but if you do wear one take it off at home and let those titties hang so they can flow.

You should possibly go get checked…for traces of humanity.

:dubious: Know what else gives you a dose of radiation? Living on Planet Earth. You get more radiation from an airplane flight than you do from an x-ray. Standing next to granite. Being outside at all. If water didn’t have oxygen in it, it wouldn’t be water. Thanks for posting stupidity in a thread that was going very nicely, thank you very much.
