The best gift you can give a woman this Christmas is the one she would never buy herself.
Every December, women across the Panhandle spend money they do not really have on everybody else. The grandkids. The neighbor. The dog.
They do not spend it on themselves, and they never spend it on a mammogram. Out here that is a hundred mile drive, a day off work, and a bill in the hundreds of dollars. So it waits until next year. And then the next one.
This is the year it does not have to wait.
Your gift buys her the whole thing. The screening, the gas to get there, and the follow up imaging if anything turns up. She pays nothing and she doesn't have to produce any paperwork beyond the application.
That is a merry little mammogram. It is a small gift, and for one woman it is the difference between wondering and knowing.
