Please help. I'm female, and found a lump in my breast. I'm turning 40 in a few months. I have a job, but I'm living from check to check..and no insurance. I live in Las Vegas, Nevada. I just spent two hours searching the web for a free check-up and free services, but went around in circles. Earlier I spent two hours on the phone, beginning with the American Cancer Society site..same result. I have a car.can go anywhere in the area. I'm terrified...don't want to spend the next several days searching..desperate for an appointment now. Has anyone been through this? Anyone know where I can start? Thank you

I just did a search on "Las Vegas breast cancer" and came up with the
Susan G. Komen Foundation which has an affiliate in Las Vegas. Why not give
them a call or check their web site? I'll bet they could help. Here's what
I copied off their web site:
