Re: new to room

Suzanne,
First of all I am sorry you even need to be here and ask these questions, but life has given you a new road and journey to take. You have found a wondeful place to get lots of great information.

The hardest part is behind you (chemo) the herceptin treatment you will find much easier.

I know many of our members have had the surgery an you will glean lots of information from them.

You are so young and have so many years ahead of you.
One of my best friends had surgery a year ago and now a year later has had reconstruction. She is 67 years.
So each women needs to make the decision based on what makes her feel best.

Welcome and I send you best wishes.
Jean
