Surgery date setall

Goincrzy8

So the surgeon office called to confirm the surgery date, Dec 9 at 7:30 am. After reading all the different forums having a pity party today. Why do I have to lose a breast when others get lumpectomy and rads. What makes me so special? As of now I will be lopsided and am not thinking reconstruction etc. I have never been in the hospital except for my kids. I dont want this and yet I don't have a choice but to go thru all the steps to see my grandkids grow up.

Feeling sad

Golnczy8,


So sorry that this is happening to you. I got DX 8/2/16 they were not sure how large the area of cancer was in my right breast. I knew from the very the start that I wanted to cross this bridge once! My MRI showed so many calsifications on both breast. I opted to have both breast removed. The cancer in my right breast was small enough that I did not need chemo or radiation. I feel very grateful for that. My "healthy" breast showed pre cancerous lobular cells. I am in the process of reconstruction and will have my exchange surgery on 12/2/16.


I am sure you are in shock as these things come at us out of no where. I say read up on things and get information. It is scary and sad but know you are not alone. I pray for Gods peace to you.
