....and Blanche, I can attest to the fact that "harrie" aka Maryanne is very helpful. I spoke with her over the telephone and she shared a lot of information about DIEP with me. Things like getting ready for the surgery - the surgery and hospital stay and the recovery. Her information was so helpful because I knew she had been through it.

My DIEP is scheduled for June 17. I'll be happy when it's June 18th and all is well.
