Hi Leanne
Peace of mind for your sister, you, your mum and the rest of family and loved ones is so important.
I have only had a lumpectomy and after reading how often there is a recurrence I sometimes wonder whether I should have gone double mastectomy to give me peace of mind. I have just finished my journey and now know I will always have that fear in the back of my mind of a recurrence. I can assure you that it won't rule my life to the point of me stressing about it 24/7 but I think it will still be there niggling away.
Yes your sister is brave but also sensible if she has the gene and she found it was something she needed to do to give her that peace of mind.
Wishing her a good recovery and a BC free life.
Mich xoxo
