Can't be bothered with a new boob
Hi, being a secondary breast cancer travellor, getting a reconstruction is not a priority, if there are no nerves, body of a weather beaten 50 yr old, I'd rather have money to travel or a sports car ...
I didn't know there was a no reconstruction group!I am not in the secondary breast cancer category,but I am almost 60, and reconstruction for me is just not on my priority list.I definitely understand though that there are lots of ladies that love their new breast/breasts,and perhaps if I was younger ( if only! ) it would be an option for me also.I think that with age there are also lots of other health related issues that are not connected to BC,but could be impacted by reconstruction,because of the stress that it causes to the body.So it's definitely in the 'not for me' category.It will always be a hot topic though,and I think that's a good thing.Cheers xoxRobyn
