Bilateral Mastectomy BOOKED !
I am soooo grateful and relieved ! .... grateful for our public health system and relieved that my request for a bilateral mastectomy was not challenged - it was granted. Surgery is booked for 30 Jul...

Hi Michelle - how lovely of you to share your experience post-op (very valuable info, thank you) ... and what a wonderful choice of words to demonstrate your preference to decline breast reconstruction - de-constructed !
Yes, as I approach my 50th birthday (later this year) I look forward to enjoying a number of aspects of our family and farm life that being larger breasted made uncomfortable. I think to be flat chested for some time (and wear prosthetics by choice) will be a welcomed relief and side benefit of the ultimate intention ie. to be cancer-free !
Thank you again x
