hi @BlackWidow
I see you have come back online. I think we need to look at the fact the surgeon has saved our live by performing surgery to remove our cancer(tumor) I had a bilateral mastectomy more than five years ago now and No reconstruction... Did you know you can get a mental health Plan allowing you to visit a psychologist under Medicare, to help you work through all the mental and emotional things that our treatment brings up? I have seen one like @Afraser and the benefits have been wonderful....
I am unsure of our beliefs but when we die if you believe in Heaven we gain a new body in Christ that means no glasses no missing breasts no hearing aids etc ....
I am sure your Husband will be awaiting your arrival but I am also sure he will want you to be with your family here on Earth as long as possible.
Did you know you can also call the helpline and chat with the lovely people there if you wish.
