I'm hoping that the French Sophie machine is a kinder, gentler analyst. But maybe the mammogram machines are the same the world over...crushing that connective tissue!! o-u-c-h.<BR/><BR/>Time for a new Sophie, I think. There must be some nicer way! <BR/><BR/>Scary though it might seem, hitting 40 is when you are starting to reach the best in womanhood in France -- just ask Juliette Binoche et al.

I have a long saga that includes a broken arm in the middle of the night in August in rural France that I'll have to write about sometime. I had the best doctors ever!<BR/><BR/>Betty<BR/>Yes, it was! I was so nervous that it was going to be really painful but it was barely even uncomfortable.<BR/>Sophie was new, so maybe she was a kinder and gentler machine. :)Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18245742506531002363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20775625.post-68073205029445726422008-05-17T19:59:00.000+02:002008-05-17T19:59:00.000+02:00Painless?
