Breast Cancer
Get the double mastectomy, but ask for a skin sparing mastectomy it will really help with the implants
Breast cancer
I just read your story and it is really to bad that none of you doctors told you about a surgery called "skin sparing" mastectomy, where the save the outer layer of your breast skin so that an implant can easily be inserted. More women with breast cancer need to ask about all options of reconstruction before having to go through what you are going through.

I want to thank you for all your updates. My wife was diagnosed last June, and I have been following your blog ever since. We are just finishing her sixth, and hopefully last chemo treatment next Monday. We just talked with the surgeon and have another appt with the plastic surgeon next week. This is the part we have been dreading. The doctors all recommend a bilteral mastectomy, which is what we're leaning toward, but it's still hard to grasp what she's in for. Best of Luck and again thanks for your updates.
