There's been a few funny times: just last appt my oncologist asked me how I was and I said "good ...for someone who has an oncologist!
i had a lumpectomy and radiation. But six months later I was feeling a bit glamorous in a low fitted top and 'done hair' and I met someone I hadn't seen for a few years but who had heard about 'my health' 'oh yes I've had breast cancer! I said and she looked at my chest and said 'so you had a double mascetomy?' No, in fact I said 'you wouldn't even see the scar! I said rather proudly. She said 'oh I geuss you were always a bit small...so you lost all your hair with chemotherapy and that's a wig?' Er no...no chemotherapy and no that's my own hair! It's hard to be inspirational !
breast wishes,
