Hi I am 38 yr old mother of 4. Diagnosed with early stage Breast cancer (dcis). Had right masectomy in June. Trying to cope and get through things but it gets overwhelming at times. Maybe in time things will feel better. Never imagined having to deal with this.

    After right mastectomy decided to have prophylactic left side mastectomy.  

    Life has been difficult being a mother of four young children.

    Just returned from hospital after having expander exchange surgery.

    Now recovering. What a journey this is. The expanders were quite uncomfortable but are part of the process. Hoping this will help me regain control of my life again. Although I have a few more smaller procedures to go.
