    We just had a very informative session last Monday night here in Wollongong.  Run by 'reclaim your curves'.  Lots of information on excises programs, bras etc..brilliant guest speakers, especially three beautiful ladies who shared their journey. I had a lumpectomy back in Sep 2015 but as I have a sister in law and a  dear who have both had mastectomies, I wanted to understand the different procedures.
