Very happy but surprise regarding DOT has her breast reconstruction done with Public route.
When i was going through Chemo, I call my plastic surgeon my "happy doctor". As I went private through the whole journey - it was a choice - but it was also a very costly expense!
I've asked my plastic surgeon who also works in public (NSW), how many reconstuctions does public perform ... I was also shock by the answer ... "very very little and close to NON". I felt gradeful that I had the choice to have reconstruction, but there's lot out there will not have that choice.
Yes it is only money, and yes it helps with my confidence ... but I felt that the government needs to do more ....
Dot ... what state are you in?
