Celeste,
You know you might change your mind about reconstruction ( it can always be done at a later date). At first I didn't want reconstruction but I take my daughters to the pool a lot during the summer so I decided to go ahead with the surgery. I did everything - the implants, the tattoo and even the nipples. I'm happy and thankful to be a survivor.
