Congratulations (if that is the right word) on your courage in making your decision. I was diagnosed with breast cancer last January and made the decision to have a double mastectomy even though all tests only showed the cancer in my left breast. I kept wondering if this was over reaction until the pathology came back after surgery showing early stage cancer also in the right breast. In hindsight a good decision, and after being through chemo my prognosis is great. I was supposed to have reconstruction with implants, but because of problems with healing of the incisions, a week after my initial surgery the surgeon had to go back and revise the incisions and take out the tissue expanders. Now that chemo is over, I am looking into going through reconstruction and watching your video has been helpful. Thank you for having the courage to share this for women like me. Good luck on your continued healing and journey through this process. I found my way to your website after finding your video today on You Tube.
