Creating pamphlet for non-reconstruction ???

wallycat

Hi gals,
I'm curious if this would be a worthy endeavor or not worth taking the time.
A few ladies opt not to reconstruct with bilaterals. I'm curious if it would be worth creating a pamphlet or something that discusses and interviews various women as to why they opted not to reconstruct. I know one of the threads on the non-reconstruction segment inquired about photos of women who go without forms and what they look like.
There's an amazing post there from LindaLou who took time to do a few poses/shots for us.
Do you think having something like this provided by a breast center is worth while or do you think most women are pretty decided and this would simply cause more angst and upset?

Any thoughts are appreciated.

I only had a single mastectomy and didn't have reconstruction, mainly because it wasn't discussed before the surgery. I have thought about it off and on, but it hasn't been an easy procedure. Knowing more about it before my mastectomy might have helped. Now, I'm just not interested in another surgery.
