mastectomy

Hi, my name is YoursIsPurple62326. I'm looking for other breast cancer survivors and/or their loved ones, in the hopes of helping myself find community and to help educate others on how a mastectomy is not a "Boob job".

#MightyTogether #BreastCancer #Mastectomy

Some ppl feel the need to fill the air with words. Some feel the need to reassure themselves that whatever challenge you have is your fault and they are protected, and some are just stupid tactless and mean. Whatever the reason ppl sometimes say things that are rather jarring in their sparkling incredible….. instead of crying let’s laugh at it
I’ll start
1. Post mastectomy and reconstruction: is that really the size you wanted? If you had the option???
2. My cowdens kid exhibits some symptoms consistent with autism: “ is he vaxed?”

My boss called today six weeks after mastectomy and diep flap reconstruction (bilateral) not to ask how I am hod forbid, to get my address for a bouquet of flowers or anything. HE WANTED TO KNOW WHEN IM COMING BACK for the love of god I need a nap from the exertion of showering! My wounds are still debrieded daily! I need love sympathy and support not stress
My job is physically taxing, mentally exhausting and emotionally draining
No just no

I have an appointment with the plastic surgeon to plan my post mastectomy reconstruction wish me luck
