Want to take care of your health and have a chance to win a fabulous Coach Bag. Intrigued? Interested yet?  This is for anyone living in the San Francisco Bay Area, so tell your friends. It's easy, alll you have to do is make a Pinky Promise to have your Mammogram and you could win this Coach Handbag!

I’m not eligible for the handbag, but made my Pinky Promise and am having my mammogram on Monday at El Camino Hospital, who are generously sponsoring this effort.

Since it’s breast cancer awareness month, I know, I know, you’re getting inundated with Pink this and Pink that and yes, it can get tiresome. I apologize for nagging you to get your mammogram.

And yet, having a mammogram is the first step in the goal of the earliest possible detection of breast cancer. We all have friends, who are alive today because a mammogram was the first step in finding an early breast cancer. So please don’t delay, make your Pinky Promise and who knows, you might just win a new Pink Handbag.
