Hi Marlee, all bc decisions are hard aren't they.It's good to have a plan in place and even better to have a break over Christmas. I would just add to take to hospital -button down the front pjs,a loose shirt to wear home, 2 drain bags to house your probable drains, stretchy cami/singlets for when the dressing and binder comes off and you still can't wear a bra.I needed strong pain killers for 3 days and then went to Panadol.Your chest area will feel abit numb. I had a left mastectomy and when I first looked, it wasn't as bad as I thought.I won't lie,it takes awhile to adjust. Good luck with chemo. Tonya xx
