I joined this page during the early hours of this morning as i couldnt sleep. I had minor surgery last Tuseday for some DCIS in my left breast. Yesterday I found out I will need the entire breast removed. Not sure why but as soon as i got home I had my daughter take photos of them. I did a few selfies too. The things we do when in shock.
I am actually happy to have my breast removed. It was my option from the start just so I can have more peace of mind. I will be sad and I am very anxious. i had read so much about it and googled photos. All i want in return is for all to be great so I can move on a laugh again and have the old me back and no more cancers.
One thing I am happy about is my surgery is Monday. I did plead to do it ASAP as I didn't think I could cope waiting for 2 or 3 weeks. Not too bad for the public system.
THANKS too for sharing your story as it gives me hope and lets me know I am not alone. You look so much younger than me too.
Cheers Bec
