My biggest accomplishments, thanks to the help of En Acción, are that all of my daughters now get regular Pap smears. Even my husband gets regular exams for colon and prostate cancer. With the help of En Acción, I learned to overcome my embarrassment and visited a doctor to have a breast lump examined. That exam saved my life.
