Hi shortlionruth,
I am sorry about you having to have a bilatral mastectomy but it will be for the best . It is only natural that you were teary because it is terribly overwhelming but do be positive about it all and you will be just fine . I will be praying for you and for a very speedy recovery .
I am still waiting on to be called so that I can have my Braca test too as my mum and my sister both had a mastectomey done , and although my mum did survive my younger sister did not, and I do feel anxious and sometimes teary too , and try very hard to keep busy and push the thoughts away etc... still, I keep busy with gardening , painting and walking and I do love movies, so I make a point of watching one everyday at lunch time over a coffee ...I call it my lunch break treat hahah!!
with best wishes
