I commented recently that it's ironic that when stressed about something, we notice reference to it absolutely everywhere. When I was waiting to have my mammogram and then while quivering in anticipation of the results, every time I opened a newspaper or magazine or even listened to the radio or watched a TV documentary, all I saw and heard was articles about breast cancer. Even the local shops were full of special offers to support breast cancer relief.
Since I went to the hospital for my annual check-up and also had my mammogram results, I haven't noticed anything about any type of cancer anywhere! I'm sure the support groups haven't stopped raising awareness and asking for help, but suddenly, I don't see those announcements. It's just as well, really, that I'm aware of the need to contribute to raising funds.
Isn't it strange, though, how the mind focusses on certain things at certain times?
In this case, though, "out of sight" certainly isn't "out of mind"!
