Phyllodes Tumor - Anyone else out there?

Hi all, Im very new to this group. My mother has just been diagnosed with this horrible tumor. Luckily the tumor was benign. She has opted to get the whole breast removed to prevent it from reoccurring. How did everyone pull up after this surgery? Im hoping after this that she will be free from it reoccurring. Its so scary and I feel helpless. Any advice would be great. Xx
