Medical Suggestions

Well here is an article I find troubling. It suggests that mammograms should not be given to younger people. My wife died of breast cancer at the age of 36 and was diagnosed at 33. This is not a great approach. The younger you get it the more deadly it is. Is this part of the death panel approach? Mistakes are not to be made when it comes to lives. This article shows that the government would rather save money than a few lives. I think younger people should get them every 5 years or so starting at 25, not wait till they get older.
