Hi Christine... Just wondering how you're doing now that some more time has passed - hopefully no chemo?. I am 3 weeks (tomorrow) post double mastectomies & immediate tram flap reconstructions.

I'm hoping you are doing well. I'm a bit down in the dumps at the moment so words of encouragement would be appreciated. I love to hear positive stories.
Cheers
