THERE'S NOTHING LEFT TO SAY! I TOLD HER A THOU-

SAND TIMES," MAMA! YOU NEED TO GETA MAMMOGRAM!" I EVEN MADE APPOINTMENTS! DID SHE KEEP THEM? NO, SHE DID NOT!

ONE DAY SHE NOTICED A LUMP! DID SHE TELL ANYONE? NO, SHE DID NOT! DIDN'T WANT TO BE ANY TROUBLE! THEY ONLY FOUND IT SIX MONTHS LATER WHEN MY COUSIN DRAGGED HER IN FOR A PHYSICAL!

YOU'RE ANGRY.
