Re: reconstruction questions

leah- I was told I had to do radiation. Since I had one positive lymph node and some cancer was escaping from it AND the fact that I am young (who knew 38 was young) they are "throwing the kitchen sink at me" (my surgeon's exact words). I just got my start date today- August 6.

How is surgery recovery going? how is you child handling the change?
